10/19/2018 – 2nd Annual SheLeadsTech Conference

For the second time, the SheLeadsTech Conference will feature key women players, leaders, and achievers in information technology and security fields, who will come and share their experiences on how to navigate the rough and rugged road that leads to the top.

The SheLeadsTech program is an ISACA International initiative that seeks to address the significant under-representation of women in business technology leadership roles and the tech workforce. #SheLeadsTech aims to engage women in technology and our allies to support and advocate for change, empower women as leaders, role models and mentors in their fields, and to elevate the role of women in technology.

ISACA’s program was established by its Women in Leadership Council, chaired by Jo Stewart-Rattray, director of information security and IT assurance for BRM Holdich, and comprised of female tech executives from around the world:

Goals:

• Increase the number of women entering the cyber security, audit, governance and control fields by 10% by 2025.
• Reduce the number of women leaving the tech workforce by 5% by 2020.
• Increase the number of women in C-suite roles by 20% by 2025
