Why a mentoring program?
Women mentoring women makes a difference. Alone we are invisible, together we are invincible.
According to the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership – In 2021 women held only 6% of Chief Executive Office (CEO) roles and 26% of positions in Executive Leadership Teams in ASX300 companies.
Corporate Women Directors International analysis shows the Asia-Pacific region continues to trail most other regions in appointing women to corporate boards, with women making up only 15.1% of board members compared to 37.6% in Northern Europe and 28.6% in the US and Canada.
Through a calendar of events, WCEI members share experiences, and motivate, support and inspire each other. We recognise and celebrate excellence and achievements and mentor one another through challenges and tough times.
