Women in Automotive ’s Post

Celebrating the Remarkable Women of Autoboys this Women's Month! 🌸 Get to know the driving force behind Autoboys as we highlight our incredible staff members who inspire us every day. These remarkable women share their insights and advice for young professionals just starting their careers. Let's dive in and get "automotivated" with their wisdom! What advice will you give to young women who are starting their career? Being humble, respectful, and silent is louder than any sound bass. Never think power is a control tool. Never ever be the reason why someone else leaves their job because of your action or imposing occupation. Be confident and always leave a mark. What motivates you to work hard? I am motivated to work hard because I am good at what I do, and I am always willing to learn. Position and status mean nothing to me what I care about is building and creating new heights.   #WomenInFocus #AutoboysWomen #WisdomAndDrive #WomenInBusiness #LeadingLadies  

❌ STOP telling women in automotive how to do everything just because they’re women. ❌ 🤔 Boggles my mind this still happens. I have worked with hundreds of women in both the automotive industry and the military. Many of my superiors in both of the above career paths have been talented and well qualified women. I have watched women out perform men at incredibley excessive rates. Not because they’re women but simply because they were better at their jobs. And I have watched some men attempt to over educate women on seemingly everything just because they are a woman. A female technician from my social media network recently told me a male was asking her vehicle service related questions. When she answered him, he asked repeatedly: “How does a woman come across this information?” As if there is a separate pool of knowledge accessible only with the correct genetics. Simply put: this is destroys the team structure in a devastating and rapid way. ✅ Treat all coworkers with equal levels of respect. ✅ Don’t assume you know more than someone else. ✅ Support eachother and learn from one another mutually. ✅ And leaders, don’t let this be the norm in your area of authority. —— I’m Chris Craig. I create daily educational and coaching content for automotive employees.

"Amid a gaping disparity in numbers compared with men, women in business aviation are using networking, collaboration, mentoring and shared resources to change the landscape." Women make up less than 20% of most aviation occupations. It's why you'll find me taking advantage of any career talk opportunity that comes my way. Because for the longest time, I had no idea that a job like mine was even an option. Now I'm here managing & selling aircraft, brokering flights, and embracing my leadership role. Here at Hillsboro Aviation, you'll find women in all sorts of roles & in every department: helicopter pilots, aircraft mechanics, parts sales, accounting, marketing, business development, HR and customer service. It's part of the culture that makes us who we are, and I love being a part of it. #NBAAyopro #bizav #youngprofessionals #womeninbusiness #changingthegame #womeninaviation

I’ve worked in the automotive industry for many years and I've witnessed many changes. Yet one challenge persists - the need for fresh perspectives and a diverse workforce. There is an urgent need to encourage more people to think about a career in automotive, with data from The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) suggesting 111,400 roles need to be filled in the next 10 years. The launch of the ‘There's More to Motor’ campaign aims to disrupt conventional perceptions and showcase the many opportunities available within the industry. At the core of this campaign are real stories – narratives that break free from stereotypes and introduce us to the diverse faces of the automotive workforce. One such inspiring story is that of Randeep Reehal (pictured) Randeep's journey from her father's garage to establishing The Pink Garage Company is inspirational. In a world where gender gaps persist, she saw the need to empower female motorists, and her vision not only challenges outdated norms but propels the entire industry forward. "Having a woman in the service and workshop area who knows what she's talking about will increase the revenue of any garage. Women will talk to other women, and that will attract more customers. It also adds value to the garage's working environment, so it's a win-win." So, stay tuned for the launch of ‘There's More to Motor’ next month. #WomenInAutomotive #Automotive #MarketingConsultant #TheresMoreToMotor

On May 29, 2024 the career development pillar of the Women at Bosch Global proudly welcomed Bonnie Scherwitz to the stage to present on Owning Your Career. More than 200 associates from around the globe joined the call live to learn and understand how we are in fact driving the car of our career and showcased to us all, how to apply what we learned to how we operate in our day to day lives and ultimately control our careers and where they're going. Bonnie brought to light that we as individuals are responsible for whether or not our foot is on the gas or the brake and to ensure we're able to notice the difference. In this incredible session we were given paths forward on how to properly navigate, fill our tanks and take detours when necessary to focus on how we are driving towards our goals. With Bosch being heavily engaged in the automotive industry, Bonnie used this as the preface of her presentation. From the gas to the brake, to checking all of the components to ensure are levels are topped off and that we have the right tools and directions readily available, with the right directions and route we can truly navigate our careers towards the path we'd like to take. This was an incredibly rewarding session with so many key take aways that are applicable to truly owning our careers. We hope that you'll take the time to watch the presentation and share it. As we kick off this new pillar, we'd love to hear from you. What topics would be of interest to you, our community when it comes to developing your career? Please let us know your thoughts!
