Balancing Act: How Women in Biopharma are Managing Home & Work During the Pandemic
The events of 2020 have blurred the boundaries between work and home, intensifying existing hurdles for working women. Dealing with financial stress, working longer hours, caring for children or other family members - all in a world with limited access to entertainment, exercise, and socialization. As a result, a recent McKinsey study showed that 1 in 4 women were considering downshifting their careers or leaving the workforce altogether.
How can women continue to thrive in their careers while also ensuring their home and family responsibilities stay a priority? Join this women-centric roundtable as experts across the biopharma industry share their experiences during the pandemic and what they’re doing to balance expectations while also combatting burnout.
