Throughout the week, we’ll be pushing for change — not the status quo. We’ll be making real connections that help you to thrive, grow, expand your mind, and feel supported in your efforts. Let’s create the future we seek together. We welcome you to join us. NEW YORK (PRWEB) April 12, 2021
Ellevate Network, the largest community of women+ at work, will be hosting Mobilize Women Week during June 21-25.
Through the course of five days, attendees will find inspiration at one of the 15+ sessions, find their people at one of Ellevate’s signature Roundtables and Mentoring Meetups, and unwind and recharge at a morning self-defense class or evening happy hour.
At Mobilize Women Week’s daily main stage speaker sessions, 30+ thought-leaders and experts will address solutions to key barriers present in today’s world: racial bias, lack of mental health support, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on gender equity, and power dynamics that shape our society.
In addition to main stage sessions, Mobilize Women Week will include ample opportunity for women+ and allies from all industries to come together, listen with intent, contribute their voice, and map out a plan for a more equitable world. Interactive Roundtable discussions, Mentoring Meetups, and Workshops will be hosted throughout the week aligned with Ellevate’s main career-focused programs for rising leaders, senior executives, managers, entrepreneurs, and career changers.
“As our world moves towards a place where businesses lead with values and professionals recognize their role in creating inclusive workplaces — we need to keep challenging each other to think bigger and to make strides every day towards equity. That, at its core, what makes Mobilize Women the experience you can’t miss,” said Kristy Wallace, Ellevate Network’s CEO. “Throughout the week, we’ll be pushing for change — not the status quo. We’ll be making real connections that help you to thrive, grow, expand your mind, and feel supported in your efforts. Let’s create the future we seek together. We welcome you to join us.”
