Empowering Women in a Male dominated STEM environment – It’s a Mindset
At the European Space Agency, we are Europe’s leader in launching rockets and satellites which requires many of our candidates to have a strong engineering and scientific background. In my role as Human Resources Advisor, I really enjoy coaching our female staff in their approach to career management and empowering them to believe in themselves when applying for leadership roles, in both technical and non-technical domains. I am happy to share with you some of my advice which is equally relevant for applicants.
