The inaugural Women’s Leadership Conference at Western Carolina University will take place Friday, March 27, 2015 and Saturday, March 28, 2015 in the A.K. Hinds University Center. Students, staff, faculty, alumni, and community members of all genders and backgrounds are invited to attend. With this conference, we hope to build and engage a strong female community in Western North Carolina, challenge gender roles, and empower/encourage leadership and awareness in women’s (and the intersections within) issues. Further, through the planned breakout sessions, panels, expo, networking session and other activities, we aim to provide participants a chance to interact with peers and mentors, to form professional networks, to prepare for careers, to reflect on their educational paths, to develop leadership skills, and to experience the diversity of women in leadership roles.
