In recent history, women have made significant strides to overcome challenges and barriers in their careers in the defense community. Today, the defense environment is much more welcoming to women, but still poses unique challenges for current and future generations seeking leadership and opportunity in defense. Join us as we hear from local senior civilian, military, and industry leaders on their unique career journeys regarding the state of our defense community today as it relates to women seeking growth and opportunity, and what they predict the future will hold for women in defense.
