As little as ten years ago, women in leadership roles within the carwash industry were scarce. Today, women make up twenty percent of the industry's leaders, and their presence continues to grow.
Amid the dynamic carwash industry, women are increasingly recognized as some of its most innovative leaders.
Our Mission
We educate, inspire, motivate, and energize professional women who care passionately about the car wash industry by delivering expert-level informative presentations, hands-on workshops, discussion groups, open forums, networking opportunities, and enjoyable, entertaining experiences. We encourage individual transformational growth, foster supportive relationships, and create a new sense of belonging and community within our industry.
Our Purpose
This conference is our place to thrive together, positioning ourselves to succeed and lead confidently. A designated space to gather and grow as professional women within the car wash industry have become a movement to educate, inspire, and support one another in myriad roles. The feminine energy is powerful and revolutionary. It has no limits, and neither do you. Join us at Women in Carwash™ and immerse yourself in our expansive experience.

Candice Colucci: This workshop is designed for women in business who are ready to take charge of their priorities and enhance their time management skills. In this dynamic session, we'll delve into the crucial aspects of prioritization and time optimization to ensure you thrive both personally and professionally.

Diane Stafford: Part II – Master having difficult conversations with Emotional Intelligence
Having difficult conversations in the workplace is an essential skill for effective communication and team dynamics. The session will focus on navigating difficult conversations in the workplace with empathy, clarity, and effectiveness, fostering a culture of open communication and mutual respect within your team or organization.
Great leaders are aware of their capabilities and their blind spots, and they continuously develop themselves to maximize the former and minimize the latter. The initial step is to understand how you naturally lead. That insight will allow you to be conscientious about your employees and how to relate to and inspire them individually.
Emotional intelligence may seem like a trendy buzzword, but it goes beyond that. It's actually an essential skill for organizational success. Data shows that higher emotional intelligence in the workplace leads to better team performance. In this highly interactive session, we will dive into the four main components of Emotional Intelligence which include self-awareness, self-management, social awareness and relationship management. Self-Awareness: The ability to not only understand your strengths and weaknesses but to recognize your emotions and the effect they have on you and your team's performance

Jennifer Klismet: Retirement & You
Has anyone really talked to you about retirement?
This seminar will discuss:
Hannah Skaanland: You are a leader wherever you are in life and at work. This workshop will cover how leading well reduces much conflict in your life and what to do when conflict is unavoidable.
Shelley Walker: The #KnowHumanTrafficking campaign aims to raise public awareness about human trafficking and educate people about how they can help those at-risk. Human Trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery and a billion-dollar industry! Often hiding in plain sight, no community is immune to its existence. Human Trafficking is ugly and horrific but we need to think about it and we need to talk about it because it’s happening everywhere. Awareness and education are vital to end this heinous crime.
You'll meet with some of the best, most progressive leaders in the field.
