„I do honestly think that if women were running the world
there would be more investment in peace,
because basically as women we don’t want to see our children killed.
Maybe I am completely idealistic,
but until we see women in equal positions of power in the world,
I just think that we are doomed.”
– Meryl Streep
Now, we are facing the greatest challenges than ever before – the world economic crisis and the war in Ukraine, in Europe. The logistics sector has its own significant role in the situation – to maintain supply chains. In this picture we can also see the crisis of leadership – women’s leadership. The number of women leaders during the last two years dramatically decreased in every country and in every sector, also in logistics. The world needs women’s competence, solidarity and the leadership of women. It needs it as never before.
At this moment we should do everything to strengthen women’s leadership. The leadership which is based on empathy, strong roots in the community, bold ideas and courage. So, we hope that our webinar will be one of the important steps to start a global public debate on how to reinforce women’s leadership in the logistics sector, how to start cooperation in this field and how women and men can empower each other.
Date and place: 7th April, 2022, online (Zoom platform)
Time and language: 12.30 pm – 3 pm (UTC+01:00 Warsaw), English
