What Employers Need to Know About the State of Working Women in Wisconsin
In this free webinar, we present highlights from the recently-released Kane Insights report and discuss steps employers can take with a panel of Wisconsin women leaders.
A new study revealed half of Wisconsin working women are considering quitting - 25% higher than the national average. The primary reason Wisconsin’s working women consider quitting? They feel undervalued in their current role. The good news is, with intentional action, Wisconsin employers can do more to retain women workers — a necessity for business success.
This webinar is ideal for Wisconsin CEOs, human resources executives, senior communications leaders and others who want to understand the Kane Insights: State of Working Women in Wisconsin research findings and recommendations.
“If you are a woman in a position of power in your workplace, you have the ability to change the narrative for the better and to advocate for all women.”
Attendees will walk away with an understanding of the data that impacts women in their workplace, along with ideas for how they can take steps to improve these statistics and their workplace culture.

“You need to do more than just an employee survey, because if you don’t have an implementation plan, you aren’t going to take action on what your team truly feels the purpose could be.”
“I think feeling undervalued is tied to not having input. We cannot appreciate enough just how important it is for women to feel like they have a voice, to feel like they have a say.”
