Event Overview
In manufacturing, confidence is often measured by how much we carry—but at what cost? Join Women in Manufacturing Rhode Island for a 45-minute interactive session exploring the difference between true confidence and "over-functioning."

We will dismantle the myth that burnout is a personal failure and instead examine how sustainable leadership protects what matters most: quality, safety, and people. Featuring an expert panel from Amgen and practical tools you can use immediately, this session is designed to help women lead with clarity, boundaries, and lasting impact.

What You Will Experience
Interactive Workshop: A guided session identifying the signs of over-functioning and how to pivot toward sustainable high performance.

Leadership Panel: A candid conversation with three top-tier leaders from Amgen on navigating high-stakes manufacturing environments without sacrificing well-being.

Live Q&A: An opportunity to ask the panelists how they manage the unique pressures of quality assurance and production scale-up.

Key Takeaways
The Burnout Blueprint: Learn why burnout is a systemic challenge and how to shift your mindset to view it through a leadership lens.

Boundary Frameworks: Gain practical tools to set professional boundaries that actually enhance operational safety and product quality.

Sustainable Impact: Strategies to maintain your "leadership battery" so you can lead your teams with consistency and clarity.
