Why You Should Attend When Women Lead: A One-Day Pre-SOCAP Workshop for World-Changing Women

CCM Staff September 11, 2019

The numbers don’t lie. Women earn more degrees than men do, make up nearly half of the labor force, and are crucial to the future of work. And yet, the wage gap persists, the overwhelming majority of board seats are still held by men, and women-identifying individuals are less represented in leadership roles — despite research demonstrating that women are overall better leaders than their male counterparts. It’s time to band together and change the status quo.

On October 22, 2019, in San Francisco, California, join forces with fellow female* business leaders to move the needle at When Women Lead, a one-day pre-SOCAP workshop presented by SOCAP and Conscious Company Media. Offered as an add-on to SOCAP19 or as a standalone ticket, When Women Lead invites you to gather with a powerhouse group of women-identifying social entrepreneurs, founders, investors, and business owners to share wisdom, connect around best practices, and explore what happens when women truly lead. Kick off SOCAP by hearing the stories of best-in-class female business leaders and investors and participating in no-holds-barred conversations about shifting the paradigm of our world’s male-dominated economy.

* The When Women Lead event and its content (as well as all content produced by Conscious Company Media) welcomes and is catered to mission-driven business leaders who identify as women, trans, and gender non-conforming. 

The Agenda:

In addition to the world-class businesswomen and female investors who will be sharing their perspectives on creating a new economy where women truly lead, the agenda weaves in ample time for discussion amongst attendees, as well as facilitated connection time to go deep with your peers. The day will be designed to be equal parts inspiring and thought-provoking, while stimulating new connections with incredible women who can add to your network of trusted allies.

The Facilitator:

If you’re at all familiar with Conscious Company’s World-Changing Women’s Summit, then you know you’re in for a treat with Jocelyn MacDougall — a world-class event facilitator with an abundance of authenticity, warmth, and charisma.
