Building on the well-received WOW session as presented at last year’s conference, we are hored to offer an updated session to include input and feedback from 2022 and to continue offering an opportunity for growth and networking among those in attendance. While limited in number, many women contribute to the sw and ice community’s efforts to provide safety and mobility during inclement weather. Their efforts, journeys, trials, and tribulations provide great insight for all swfighters seeking ways to learn, adapt, and overcome and for all agencies seeking greater insight into diversity within the workforce. A panel of women from across the country representing various roles within winter operations will share their stories, kwledge, and wisdom as a conduit to helping others to adapt and overcome and helping agencies better understand the advantages of employing diversity.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be better able to:
• Develop coping skills and methods for success through the voice of experience.
• Gain kwledge and insight into the vast network of roles that women play in winter operations.
• Establish a network of resources to mentor their journey’s career path.
