Game-Changing Women Honored at Electronics Leadership Awards

Electronics Weekly recently had the opportunity to speak with Paulette Watson, the founder and managing director of Academy Achievers & STEM Academy Achievers in Ghana. Watson is not only a prominent figure in the electronics industry but also a judge for Electronics Weekly's Women Leaders in Electronics Awards.

Watson believes that these awards are a game changer for the industry, as they promote a more diverse and inclusive leadership landscape. By recognizing the achievements of women in the field, these awards help to change perceptions, break down stereotypes, and create an environment where everyone feels encouraged to pursue leadership roles in electronics.

According to Watson, seeking mentorship, networking, and connecting with other women in the industry can provide valuable support and encouragement. She emphasizes the importance of showcasing the impact of one's work and reminds women that their contributions deserve recognition.

If you're looking to make a difference and be a disruptor in the electronics industry, Watson encourages you to enter yourself or a colleague for the Women Leaders in Electronics Awards. The deadline for entries is 07 February.

The Women Leaders in Electronics Awards ceremony will take place on Tuesday 23 April 2024, at London's prestigious De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms. This event promises to be a celebration of the achievements of women in the industry and an opportunity to network with like-minded professionals.
