About the event

An intimate morning for women navigating leadership in the planning industry.

April 1st, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Zurich Marriott Hotel, Neumühlequai 42, 8006 Zurich


What This Morning Offers

Power doesn’t always look the way we expect it to — especially for women leading in traditionally male-dominated fields like finance, technology, and supply chain.

This curated breakfast brings together women across career stages for honest conversations about influence, visibility, decision-making, and what it truly means to step into leadership on your own terms.

Together, we’ll explore the internal and external shifts required to lead with confidence, presence, and authenticity.

You’ll leave with:

  • Practical strategies for owning your voice and leadership presence

  • Insight into navigating power dynamics in professional environments

  • Authentic connections with women facing similar challenge.

  • Clarity on how to take your next step into greater influence


Format: Interactive workshop + panel conversation + meaningful networking

Who Should Attend

Women working in planning — whether you’re early in your career or already in leadership.

If you’re navigating questions around influence, visibility, ambition, and how to lead authentically while building real impact, this morning is for you.
