Episode #4
Voices to Glasgow: Changing the Conversation in Glasgow
In this episode, Christina Savas is joined by Sarah McMath, CEO of MOSL and National President of the Institute of Water, and Carol Cairns, Chief Asset Officer at Portsmouth Water. They discuss their very different routes into the water industry, how the sector has changed over the past 20-30 years, and why water security needs to become a bigger part of the conversation. They also explore the challenges women still face in the industry from attracting and retaining female talent to creating more inclusive workplaces and professional networks. With the IWA Congress coming to Glasgow, Sarah and Carol share their vision for making the event the most gender inclusive Congress yet, including the Women in Water programme, connection hub, buddy system and opportunities for women from around the world to build relationships and take part. A conversation about water, women, leadership, inclusion and the future of the industry and why Glasgow could be an important moment for change.
