Special Session
Women In the Industry: Is There Still a Glass Ceiling?
0830–1130, Wednesday, 24 September
Korbel Ballroom
Is there a glass ceiling in the energy industry? To hear answers to this question, join us for an exciting discussion from a diverse panel of women who will share their views and experiences.
The panel presents an overview of some of the barriers—real, fictitious, or self-inflicted—that face women in the industry and discusses how to break through these barriers. The session features a networking breakfast, 10-minute presentations by each panelist, and an open Q&A session with the audience.
