GradProSkills Workshop - Women in Project Management (GPCB667)

You are a working professional assigned to the highest priority project in your organization. Your innovation is required to develop an exciting new product on the cutting edge of technology. The customer is an industry leader with a reputation for top quality, and expectations include delivery on time and under budget.

Your project manager is male, as is the majority of your senior colleagues located all around the world. Your customer’s team is mostly male too.

Suddenly there is a change, and your project manager is replaced by a female of equal seniority and experience. Is the project manager’s gender relevant to you as a stakeholder?

This workshop will discuss the unique opportunities and challenges faced by women in ensuring long-term success in their careers as project managers. It is intended to help women establish progressive working relationships in order to realize their full potential in the corporate world.
