Three ways to grow at WiM West 2021

Posted By: Lisa Tarcy Blog,

The Women in Manufacturing (WiM) Association will be heading west (virtually!) in a little over a month as we launch our newest addition to our regional conference series – WiM West 2021! This two-day conference will offer attendees located in the Western region of the U.S. opportunities to learn from regional knowledge experts in manufacturing while creating impactful relationships with peers.

Here are three ways in which you can grow, both professionally and personally by participating in
WiM West on March 11 - 12:

1. LEARN from leaders on important industry topics – from cultivating diversity and inclusion in the workplace, to the evolution of aerospace in the region, to mastering mentorship and so much more!  Speakers, including Molly Q. Ford, Vice President, Global Equality Programs at SalesforceRobin Toth, Director of Aerospace at Washington State Department of Commerce, and Erin Cuellar, Senior Operations Manager at STERIS, will join us for this deep dive to help professionals develop and grow, both personally and professionally!

2. CONNECT with peers across the industry in your region. Participants will enjoy interacting with fellow manufacturing professionals from Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona, and other surrounding states throughout the virtual conference. Schedule group or one-on-one appointments to connect with other attendees, grab your drink of choice and participate in the WiM West Virtual Happy Hour, and interact with others throughout each session. You are sure to walk away with some new connections in your region and industry!

3. ADVANCE both personally and professionally as a WiM West attendee. We've curated an agenda filled with topics that you can take back to the office and your home to help you succeed. WiM West sessions will leave you with action items that can be applied as soon as the conference ends. Additionally, unique to WiM's regional conferences (WiM West, WiM North, WiM South), as a participant of WiM West, you will have the chance to collaborate one-on-one during the event with one of our experienced coaches during a Career Coaching Session.
Learn more about this new and exciting event and registration options available on our website. We hope to "see" you next month during WiM West!
