MADISON, Wis.—CUES said its next CUES RealTalk! Podcast will tackle “the confidence gap” between men and women in the workplace when the discussion takes place on June 22.
“RealTalk! covers important, but often hard to discuss, issues impacting the credit union industry and is focusing on the theme ‘Women in the Workforce: Because $0.82 is NOT Enough’,” CUES said.
Attendees will hear from a panel of experts, CUES said, with the session moderated by Laurie J. Maddalena, CEO of Envision Excellence. Panelists will include Bryn C. Conway, principal of BC Consulting; Sara Jensen, SVP-governance and administration with CO-OP Solutions, and Soma Sarkar, EVP/COO.
“Research shows women tend to struggle with lack of confidence more than men; our panelists will explore the why’s behind the confidence gap, and offer suggestions on ways to overcome it,” said Dawn Abely, CUES’ SVP/chief sales and member relations officer.
Session talking points include, according to CUES:
- Imposter syndrome
- The qualifiers women often use in speech, such as “just” and “I’m sorry”
- Why it can be so hard for women to ask for what they want
“Like our previous two sessions, our panelists will offer actionable ideas and practical solutions our attendees can put to use immediately,” said Abely.
Upcoming Sessions
According to CUES, other upcoming sessions include The Double Bind on Sept. 21.
“Because the topics CUES RealTalk! covers are so important, this event is being offered at no charge, and all industry professionals are encouraged to attend,” CUES said.
The first two sessions, covering The Great Resignation and The Gender Pay Gap, are available for playback here.
