The Utah Women & Leadership Project invites you to join us for our third webinar in the 2025 Women in Leadership Executive Speaker Series with this one focused on the impact of sexism on women’s careers.

Sexism is defined as referring to the stereotypes (how we think), prejudice (how we feel) and discrimination (how we act) towards others or oneself based on gender. Sexism can take many forms, some overt and some more subtle. Speaking up against sexism can be a powerful force for reducing gender inequity and arming women and girls (and male allies) to identify and address sexism in their workplaces is important. Being prepared about how to respond to everyday sexism can help women feel more confident in their interactions with others. By raising awareness of the widespread occurrence and damaging effects of sexist language, comments, beliefs, and behaviors, we hope to reduce the frequency of sexism in our homes, neighborhoods, communities, and the state.
