Women in Manufacturing Leadership Council

Overview

CME’s Women in Manufacturing Leadership Council is a peer-mentoring forum to provide opportunities for women to network, improve their professional skills and learn from the experience of other women in industry.

The council is an exclusive group of 5-10 senior manufacturing women leaders from non-competing CME member companies who meet to gain strategic insights, share ideas and learn from each other’s experiences.
