Registration opens for the LEAD Network Conference 2022

Published on June 16, 2022

You're invited to the LEAD Network Conference 2022! 2 days of networking, inspiration, learning, discussions, and best practice sharing to drive action as an industry to create more gender-equal workplaces!  

The theme is "Doing not Trying: Lead through Inclusion" because advancing inclusion is good for your business and a prerequisite for a more righteous and equal world. It's not optional, and it requires thoughtfulness and intention. And leadership to make the inclusion shift and enable diversity to thrive.

Delegates, including the CEOs of some of Europe's largest CPG and retail companies, are coming together to network, share knowledge, and best practices. And this year, those members unable to join us in person can participate virtually!
