Optimizing Women Leadership [hors programmation]

This leadership event is organized for youth who are 14 to 18 years old, and will celebrate Montreal women leaders under the theme: The Effects of Cultural Expectations and Behavioural Norms on Women’s Leadership. 

For this occasion, three women leaders who work in various fields across Montreal have been invited: 

• Ms Anne-Marie Hubert works as Managing Partner, Advisory services at Ernst & Young Canada.

• Ms Ruthanne Huising teaches Organizational Behaviour at the Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University.

• Ms Karen Cho is a Chinese-Canadian filmmaker most known for her compelling and socially-engaging documentaries. 

This initiative is part of a series of actions designed to develop the capacity of youths to identify and respond to barriers affecting their full participation in civic, political and community life. 

This event is hosted by the participants of the group OWL (Optimizing Women’s Leadership), with the support of Breast Cancer Action Montreal and Status of Women Canada.

*This is a private event.
