Epistimi: Catalyzing STEM Women's Leadership for Internal and Workplace Transformation
Epistimi trains early career women in male dominated STEM workplaces to navigate toxic cultures, synergize to overcome promotion barriers, and lead themselves and others.
Epistimi tackles both external and internal barriers facing women in STEM fields creating a network of leaders. Sexual harassment and unsupportive bosses contribute to the "leaking" pipeline and the gender pay gap in toxic STEM workplaces. Through a comprehensive cohort program and individual leadership projects, participants learn to lead themselves and others by building self-awareness, personal decision-making, and vision, and by learning to navigate team dynamics, resolve conflict, and successfully negotiate a better workplace culture.
