Conference Overview

While progress has been made in the past few decades for women’s rights, there are still inequities in pay, gender discrimination, harassment issues, and other challenges that women leaders must face in modern organizations.  Stanford women are among the most intellectually curious, productive and motivated people in the world.  The Stanford Women's Leadership Conference was created to provide a powerful opportunity for these talented women to come together to make connections, learn strategies for overcoming the barriers that still persist for women leaders, and develop ways to move innovative ideas into creative action.
