Why you should AttendÂ
Women continue to battle bias as they navigate their careers. Unconscious gender bias is defined as unintentional and instinctual mental associations based on gender norms, traditions, values, and culture. While we have seen some improvement, women remain at a disadvantage due to company practices and structures that are favored, by men. Women still earn less, get promoted less frequently, and are underrepresented in the highest leadership positions.
