For us, this is a special and important episode of the podcast. This episode deals with issues women face in engineering. We hope that through telling one woman’s story and suggesting some coping strategies, we can help inspire other women in engineering and help men understand what it is like to travel for a while, in a woman’s steps.
Cecilia Garay Chaparro is an Electrical / Mechanical Engineer and CEO of IIE SA DE CV, a turnkey building services and energy solutions contractor in Monterrey Mexico.
As a woman in Engineering, Cecilia has experienced and overcome many obstacles that frankly, many men in the same situation, do not encounter. Cecilia is not complaining, she is sharing her story on the podcast to:
- Highlight what it is like to be a woman in engineering.
- Enable men in engineering to see the world via a woman’s perspective Discuss strategies for anyone coping with same issues.
