The NAWO Impact
Watch our new testimonial video
Hear from three senior leaders – Lydia Avril at Amazon, Terri Massey at CHEP and Kamini Wijekulasuriya BlueScope – as they share their insights as women in operations. Hear them talk about the value their NAWO membership brings to them as individuals through providing meaningful connections and outstanding development opportunities, and their organisations through the ability to share solutions across industry for better gender balance in operations.
A huge thanks to Amazon for supporting the production and to the talented team hellofuture.tv for bringing the stories of these three exceptional women to life.

100 women in operations - the leaders that shape our network
CELEBRATING 100 WOMEN IN OPERATIONS!
We’re proud to launch an ongoing celebration of our members – women who are thriving in their operational careers across multiple industries.
Throughout this campaign, we will celebrate #100 Women in Operations, movers and shakers drawn from our membership and spanning nine industry sectors that have historically employed women in less than 30% of operational positions.
Join us in celebrating brilliant women from the NAWO network by nominating women from your team who are forging a successful career in industry.
Learn about the jobs they do, the career paths they walked, and their passion for operations by tuning into our monthly What a Job! sessions.
Listen to our podcast on Apple Podcast and Spotify!
Follow us on social media to view our 100 Women in Operations campaign or visit our campaign webpage to learn all about these leaders.
