WIM UK Leadership Webinar
15th July 2026
Join Women in Mining UK and Magellan Transition for an executive leadership coaching webinar:
‘Presence and Influence for Women Leaders in Mining: How women leaders can strengthen their visibility, voice, and impact’
She was brilliant, recognized as high potential, freshly promoted to lead over 300 people – and yet, fear had quietly taken over. The more she doubted herself, the more she controlled. The more she controlled, the more her team pulled away.
Sound familiar? This is the story of many exceptional women in mining, and it was the story of one of Florence’s coachees – until it wasn’t…
Drawing on years of coaching leaders within mining operations, this webinar is not a theoretical discussion. It is a space that meets you exactly where you are – in the tension, the self-doubt, the moments where you wonder if you are truly seen and heard. Not to assign blame, and not to play the victim – but to begin telling a different story.
One where your presence commands the room, your voice shapes strategy, and your influence ripples across teams, sites, and boardrooms. If you are a woman in mining who is ready to stop shrinking and start leading on your own terms, this hour was made for you.
Kindly Sponsored by Magellan- Transition.

UPCOMING CONFERENCES
1st – 3rd December 2026
Resourcing Tomorrow
Where the World’s Mining Leaders Meet
We’re delighted to return to Resourcing Tomorrow in London, and London Mining Week, this December hosting the Women in Mining UK Lounge.
Capital is becoming more selective. Governments are taking a more active role in how mining and critical minerals projects are approved, financed and developed. Supply chains are under pressure, and timelines are tightening.
Resourcing Tomorrow brings the global mining industry together in London to respond to this reality.
As the anchor event of London Mining Week, it connects mining companies, investors, governments and solution providers in a commercial setting designed to turn conversations into action, from capital deployment and partnerships to supply-chain collaboration.
Held at the heart of global finance and policy, the event attracts more than 2,300 senior decision-makers shaping projects, investment strategies and the future of critical minerals.
Resourcing Tomorrow is where the industry aligns on what needs to happen next, and who is going to deliver it.
If you are a WIM100 and would like to attend Resourcing Tomorrow London please email help@womeninmining.org.uk for details on complimentary conference passes.
If you’re a student looking to kickstart your career in mining, don’t miss this opportunity. If you are an undergraduate student apply for your complimentary NextGen Leaders pass. Please note registration approval will take up 24 hours so do not leave it to the last minute to apply.
