Debut on the panel at AM People Conference!
It was a real honour to have been invited to join the discussion panel at yesterdays AM & IMI People Conference.
Feeling slightly apprehensive as to what to expect I ended up really enjoying the Keynote session with my fellow panel; Shirley Young, Diana MacKinnon and David Collis.
It actually felt like a friendly chat among industry colleagues and under the fielding of Steve Nash we answered questions on diversity in the industry, how to attract graduates and how to appeal to women.
We were all in agreement that working as a collective we could make the industry an attractive one for graduates and people already in work to regard automotive roles as ones accessible and available to them. Creating careers not jobs.
Educating women that the industry is not just for men and there are a plethora of roles available to them in which they can succeed and fly is the responsibility of all currently in the industry,
With the exciting changes coming such as the connected car, electric cars and driverless cars - surely the automotive industry is one that can drive your career!
