About the Women's Leadership Conference (WLC)
SASE Pro's mission is to Unlock the Leadership Potential of API Professionals. Asian-heritage women can face a triple bind at work: gender inequity, “model minority”, and “perpetual foreigner” stereotypes combined.
Did you know that women of Asian heritage are...
ONE SIXTH as likely to reach executive levels?
Less likely to be viewed as leaders in professional settings?
More likely to find their cultural and familial values at odds with those needed to successfully navigate American corporate culture
SASE Pro is planning our fifth annual Women's Leadership Conference designed for Asian-heritage women professionals, built on direct input from more than 100 Asian women professionals and 30 Asian employee resource groups.
This year’s program will build from successful virtual Women’s Leadership Conferences in 2021-2024 in a one-day virtual experience on April 25, 2025.
*Note: while the programming is designed to focus on challenges commonly experienced by Asian-heritage women, this and all of our SASE programs are open to anyone. We frequently receive very positive feedback from attendees outside of the target audience.

Executive Panels
Asian Women-Led Leadership workshops
