Traditionally, few women work in the steel industry, although the technological changes brought about by digitalization, automation, occupational safety and ergonomics in the workplace mean that the job profiles are no longer the exclusive preserve of male colleagues. At Ilsenburger Grobblech GmbH, the proportion of women is already comparatively high. The aim is to increase this further and to encourage women to take on management positions in particular.
We believe that diverse leadership teams can make a significant contribution to our corporate culture and diversity. We therefore support the development of female employees with special programs such as "Career Paths for Women" and "Mentoring for Women", which are firmly anchored in the cross-company qualification program FORWARD.
The Career Paths for Women orientation program is aimed at women in all functions who want to actively plan their careers and see a management career as an option for their professional development. Workshops are held to develop individual ideas and goals and to identify development opportunities in various career paths.
The Mentoring Program for Women is designed for ambitious women in leadership positions who have been successful in their roles for several years or who are about to take on a leadership role and are looking for ways to develop their leadership skills.
