• Workshoping the WEPs– How Do We Engage Gen Y Worldwide?

It started at a women’s luncheon……….

Why We Are Here?Listening to Young Women’s Voices

What if we asked young women

what empowerment

meant to them???

“Stern Women Speak”An Undergraduate Position

• Nisha Parikh: the conversation starts before us– Experience with middle school students– Challenge in the USA – Is it the same in other cultures?

• Jacqueline Mai

“Stern Women Speak”A Graduate Position

• Kaveeta Chandrani: gender inequality is sometimes very subtle and nuanced in the business world– Rising through the ranks– Punishment for wanting work/life balance? Is this

true across cultures?

• Katie Hepler: Take off the blinders and revert back to your instincts as a young adult– Extracurricular activities showcase talents– principle #1 about leaders driving the change and

being perceptive to the un-earthed talent they have in their organizations.

“Stern Women Speak”A Graduate Position

• Lauren Stoneberg: gender equality will only be realized once men and women become partners in pursuit– In different environments, what truth about

inequality is the biggest catalyst for change?

• Cassidy Morris: women must continue to support each other as the conversation around gender equality changes– How do we support each other when beliefs are

similar but actions and impacts can vary?
