Attendees will also hear a leadership panel addressing findings from the Motor Vehicle Retailers of Ontario (MVRO) and Deloitte’s Engaging Employee Survey, including mentorship, work-life balance and representation in the workplace.
In London, the event will take place in the evening at The Factory and include a guest leadership speaker, a career panel of women in automotive, and networking opportunities.
Tickets are $150 plus HST, covering food and beverages. Proceeds go toward Women Driven’s scholarship fund, which supports the next generation of leaders in the automotive sector.
