WOMANagement Conference 2023 Videos
What is WOMANagement?
WOMANagement, by The WIT Network, is a movement to foster equal and more diverse representation in our front-line manager teams in companies of all sizes. By creating a new movement focused on women in management positions, we want to inspire followership of companies to leverage our WOMANagement programming within their organizations.
- We want women to want to be a #WOMANager.
- And those who already are – let’s celebrate them and encourage mentoring of the next WOMANagers!
We strive for companies to celebrate their women in management/leadership goals within their organization. It isn’t just about gender parity. It is about progress and creating a movement to bring awareness to the challenges.
The WIT Network is pleased to present our new flagship WOMANagement programming to encourage more gender-focused management teams. The WIT Network believes we need to start by creating room at the front-line manager table to reach a more balanced management team who will grow into future leaders and board members.
Corinne opened the 2nd annual WOMANagement Conference discussing the opportunities of diversity, equity and inclusion being a critical business strategy. The three pillars of The WIT Network's WOMANagement programming are build and manage your team, business and yourself.
Live generously, love fiercely, create an impact! Those were very powerful words from our fabulous keynote speaker.

Also as a WOMANager, coaching your team and by example is all part of learning to live out loud.
