Women in Agriculture Lunch
Women attending the 2021 ICM Conference are invited to join their colleagues at the Women in Agriculture Lunch on Wednesday, December 1, 2021 at the Scheman Building.
The purpose of this lunch is to offer women in ag a networking opportunity to get to know each other and discuss common goals and challenges in their jobs. As the number of women in the agricultural service sector increases the goal is to provide an opportunity for women to network in a professional atmosphere centered around crop production and protection, natural resources protection, and career enhancement.
Lunch is included in the conference registration. No separate registration is required.

Building your Ecosystem of Allies | Dawn Refsell
We know that one person doesn’t have all the answers, so we need to have a community (ecosystem) of support around us. We will talk about why a network of allies is beneficial to your career, what are the essential allies to have in your network, what roles do these allies play, and how you can be an ally for others.
