Global Conversations DIGITAL: Women in Diplomacy

Many countries face challenges of migration, terrorism, climate change, and the spread of fast-paced technology. Those who are sitting around the table will change the course of history and redefine how we solve critical problems. Through interviews with female Ambassadors, Deputy Chiefs of Mission, and diplomats spanning Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Croatia, Finland, Hungary, Iceland, Kosovo, Mexico, Namibia, Singapore, and the U.S., author Susan Sloan’s new book “A Seat at the Table: Women, Diplomacy, and Lessons for the World,” highlights the impact of gender-diversified leadership, and why varied voices lead to stronger resolutions and enhanced team dynamics.

Join us for a webinar as we talk with Susan to discuss her new book and examine how the role of women in the diplomatic corps is changing the world. The webinar will be moderated by Monica Cruz, Head of Community Affairs at the Consulate of Mexico in Saint Paul, and representative of the Institute of Mexicans Abroad for Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and western Wisconsin, leading the design and implementation of programs meant to increase equitable access and well-being in the Mexican diaspora.
