One of the contributing factors to gender gaps in pay comes from women being shut out of access to entire sectors of the U. S. economy, especially well-paying positions in male-dominated professions like construction and science, technology, engineering, and STEM occupations. This informative panel discussion with women working in male-dominated industries, we’ll discuss how to get access to these higher-paying jobs, how to overcome the challenges of working with men, and how to rise above the good old boy’s network to move up the ladder of success.
