International Women’s Day is March 8, and we’re celebrating here at Benna CDJR. From our amazing staff to the brands we work with, we’re taking this time to give accolades where they’re very well deserved. The day is set aside to celebrate achievements and look towards the future of gender parity of the women in our community and around the world.
Recognizing Women’s Achievement: Past, Present, and Future
The automotive world hasn’t always been associated with women, but the last several decades have proven that to be incorrect. Now more than ever, women are ruling every sector of the industry from business to manufacturing and right here at our dealership. Chrysler, Ford, Jeep, and RAM are part of the Stellantis Group, which launched Women of Stellantis in honor of last year’s IWD. It’s a resource group meant to improve representation and foster inclusion in every sector of the industry by promoting women in leadership and increasing employment around the world. By increasing awareness and embracing women’s contributions, Stellantis is opening the door to invite women into the automotive world.
The group sets realistic goals with concrete plans to achieve them, like having 35% of women in leadership roles by 2030. They’d already achieved 24% by 2020, a vast increase from previous years. When you visit us at Benna CDJR, you’ll see how important women are to how our dealership is run, including our office, service center, and everything in between. Since one of IWD’s missions is to build workplaces where women thrive, we as a team work hard to build an environment that’s inclusive. As Gloria Steinem stated, equality is a collective effort, achievable only by working together as a team. So this year, we plan not only to celebrate the history of women’s achievements, but also build a future where success is more possible and within reach than ever before.
When you visit us at Benna CDJR, you’ll see for yourself how women are part of the backbone of our dealership. Whether you visit our sales team to browse our new vehicles or bring your car, truck, or SUV in for service, we welcome you to join us in celebrating women on International Women’s Day – and every other day!
