Leading Through Crisis By Women’s Business Cent

Learn how women in manufacturing can build executive sponsorships and lead confidently through operational crises and disruption.

Data shows that mentorship is the single most valuable resource for retaining and advancing women in manufacturing, where they hold less than 30% leadership roles. Manufacturing environments add another layer of complexity — sudden supply chain disruptions, equipment failures, shift shortages, and strict safety demands all require leaders who can manage under real pressure.

This webinar explores how women in manufacturing can build the sponsorships and mentorship relationships that open doors to advancement, while also developing the crisis-leadership skills the sector demands.

In this session, you'll learn how to:

• Cultivate executive sponsors, not just mentors, who actively advocate for your advancement
• Act as an industry ambassador to help build a pipeline of future female talent
• Lead effectively under pressure during operational disruptions
• Strengthen team morale and drive continuous improvement, even in high-stress conditions
