young Female leaders event

Challenges for Young Female Leaders in Organisations

Take part in the dialogue with like-minded female graduates about to start a career in the world of structural paradoxes.

International Womens Day 2022 #BreakTheBias (8)

Join us for an open and inspiring knowledge sharing opportunity

At ISS, we have ambitious gender balance goals, and we aim at having 40 % gender balance in corporate leadership by 2025. This goal calls for new ways of thinking and a dedicated, proactive approach to our talent management, training and development efforts. Therefore, we invite young female talents to take part in an open conversation about what potential barriers and challenges you as female graduates face when entering today’s labour market. What would it take to overcome these, and what can we as an employer actively do to address that and support your future aspirations?
