Women are one of the most influential segments in the AEC industry, yet when looking at leadership roles in these industries we still ask: Where are they?  

AIA created Women’s Leadership Summit to deliver essential leadership training designed to help women unlock their full potential, make a lasting impact on their careers, and lead change in architecture and the allied professions.  

What happens at WLS is unique.  

  • It connects you with a diverse community that wants to support you and help you achieve your goals.  
  • It shares pathbreaking ideas that challenge traditional thinking and lead change.  
  • It celebrates women leaders at every career stage, empowering all of us to change the future.  

It’s all powered by the AIA community, the largest, most influential network of architecture professionals and allies designing a better world.
