We do that by helping women hone new skills and helping companies create inclusive environments where women thrive and business performance grows.

For Members

For Partners

WFF Partners are at the forefront of inclusive leadership. They increase opportunities for women to grow their careers in the Food Industry and drive sustained business growth with gender-diverse leadership teams.

When you join WFF, and the many global brands we proudly call Partners, you gain the insights and support to evolve your gender equity efforts. You also get unrivaled leadership development for your teams to ensure women team members rise with you.

Develop Women Leaders

Providing female team members with access to WFF's rich professional development content - informed by research and tailored to their career stage - builds their competencies and your talent pipeline.

Accelerate Progress

When you don't have to reinvent the wheel, you can go farther, faster. WFF connects Partners to key insights and learnings that are already being proven in the workplace and in the Food Industry.

Lead Change

Employees are inspired by leaders who promote workplace diversity, and women who see their companies committed to gender diversity want to stay with them longer. Leading on gender equity helps you win the war for talent.
