Who We Are

Women In Automotive® was initially founded in 2014 and changed ownership in 2022. Under new ownership, the organization is Board member-led and operated. The driving force behind this group of industry executives is a shared commitment to empowering, mentoring, and developing women in the auto industry. The philosophy is that these initiatives will benefit women, men, and the industry as a whole.

To empower and champion women within the automotive industry through the Women In Automotive® Community, mentorship program, conferences, educational resources, and WIA Social & regional events.

Women In Automotive® is dedicated to helping organizations hire, develop, retain, and promote women in every role, from entry-level to executive. We partner with like-minded organizations and individuals.

As more women take on leadership roles in an industry that has historically been majority male, it is paramount that this growing and powerful force has a support network that bolsters this trend. This is not a mission we choose to accept. It is one we must.
