FESTIVAL OF SOURCING - Diversity & Inclusion Stage - Women in Sourcing

The GSA has pulled together a powerhouse panel of phenomenal female leaders of the industry to speak about the challenges they have faced throughout their careers and when climbing the career ladder. They’ll speak on how these challenges have driven them to create change and make gender imbalance a thing of the past. Set to be a truly inspirational session, you’ll hear about the challenges women still face today and the programmes that are in place, or required to be, to minimise such challenges in the future.

SPEAKERS INCLUDE:

• Debra Maxwell, CEO at Arvato CRM Solutions UK, shares her career story including the discrimination she has been subject to and why she believes we still have a long way to go in equality, and why we’re moving backwards as a result of the pandemic.
• Tara McGeehan, President of UK and Australian Operations and Member of the Group’s Executive at CGI speaks on why and how we should be encouraging women into the tech sector and making the STEM industry more attractive to women.
