Overview
The 14th Women Advance IT Leadership Exchange brings together women in IT, technology leaders, HR executives, L&D professionals and organisational decision-makers to examine what it takes to advance women into meaningful technology leadership.
Under the theme Power, Systems & Future Skills: Advancing Women into the Next Era of IT Leadership, this exchange moves beyond representation and inspiration. It focuses on the systems, opportunities and leadership capabilities that determine who gets promoted, who receives sponsorship, who gains access to strategic technology work and who is trusted to lead enterprise transformation.
As AI, cyber resilience, digital trust and data-driven decision-making reshape the organisation, women must be positioned not only to participate in IT, but to influence the decisions that define its future. This exchange will help delegates move from visibility to authority, and from career ambition to measurable enterprise impact.
Key issues to be discussed include:
Delegates will learn how to:
• Build stronger leadership authority in technical and male-dominated environments
• Move from visibility to influence in IT and digital transformation spaces
• Understand the systems that affect promotion, pay, sponsorship and opportunity
• Strengthen AI fluency and confidence in emerging technology conversations
• Navigate the broken rung between technical contribution and management
• Identify and challenge proximity bias in hybrid and remote work environments
• Build sponsorship relationships that create real career movement
• Improve executive presence in high-stakes technology discussions
• Understand how organisations can measure women’s advancement more effectively
• Develop a practical 90-day plan for influence, skills growth and leadership progression
