About WLC

The mission of the WLC is to inspire and prepare the women of Georgia Tech to become equal partners in the leadership of our professions, communities, and society.

The Women’s Leadership Conference began during the winter of 1998 as means to celebrate, recognize, and learn more about the strong leadership exhibited by women of the Georgia Tech community. The conference is a gathering of women who have sought to become leaders in the classroom and the boardroom as well as the communities where they reside. As an infant coming into the world of annual campus activities, the conference was phenomenally successful. Now in its 10th year, the conference is again seeking to broaden its vision. We are hoping to bring together college women from across the Northeast Georgia area by including neighboring schools such as Spelman College, Georgia State University and Brenau University to name a few. The two-day conference offers workshops, speakers and discussions aimed at training female leaders on area campuses and in the Atlanta community. This year, as yet another group of Georgia Tech students steps up to organize this conference, it is imperative to ‘raise the bar’ on the impact of this event. We believe that each of these women, who will soon be given varying degrees of leadership within their chosen careers, have much to learn from those who are currently blazing the trail to success.
