A Day Dedicated to Celebrating Women in Shared Services
A community-driven experience where women and allies connect, collaborate, and shape shared services future
March 16, 2026
Navigating Careers in Shared Services & GBS
SSOWomen was created by the community, for the community — to build real relationships, support and inspire one another, and find practical solutions to the challenges women face at work. At SSOWomen’s Day, women and allies across shared services and Global Business Services (GBS) come together to connect, learn, and share what’s working right now. You'll hear honest conversations, practical takeaways, and the kind of peer-to-peer energy that stays with you long after the day ends.
Built on years of community momentum, SSOWomen’s Day brings women and allies together for practical, peer-led learning. The agenda mixes real career stories, skill-building (including how AI is changing roles), small-group discussions, and time to connect with peers.
There is no single roadmap to success. Explore how leaders navigated non-linear career paths, reinvented themselves at pivotal moments, and made bold moves without waiting for permission. Learn how to pivot, stay relevant, and design a career that evolves with your ambitions, on your terms.
Future-Ready Skills & Career Acceleration
Experience alone isn’t enough. Focus on the skills shaping the next five years of leadership, from AI fluency to strategic adaptability. Discover how future-ready leaders accelerate their careers by embracing disruption, building digital confidence, and positioning themselves for what’s next.
Visibility, Voice & Self-Advocacy
Confidence alone isn’t enough. Focus on advocating for promotions, pay, and high-impact projects while strengthening your executive presence. Learn how senior leaders made themselves visible, built influence, and asked for what they deserved, strategically and effectively.
Leadership, Mentorship & Lasting Impact
Leadership today demands more than results, it demands investment in who comes next. Hear how senior leaders build inclusive cultures, mentor emerging talent, and lead across regions and generations. Leave with practical ways to build trust at scale and help people, and performance, thrive.

I’ve been to SSOW before many times, but never had the opportunity to experience SSOWomen’s Day. I met so many wonderful women with whom I will continue to have relationships with.

The sense of passion and importance to share information was a thread I experienced in all of the sessions I had the pleasure of attending.
