The Women in Baseball Leadership Committee executes several events and programs each year, including: Women in Baseball Leadership Event This event is for women currently working full time for a Minor League Baseball or Major League Baseball team or league office and are registered as a Baseball Winter Meetings attendee. If you meet both criteria, we invite you to attend the 12th annual Women in Baseball Leadership Event in December. A registration link and additional event information will be available mid-to-late October. If you do not meet the criteria to attend the Women in Baseball Leadership Event, we encourage you to attend the Diversity in Sport Forum or Moving Diversity Forward. Hover your mouse over the event name to email the appropriate individual for more information. This year's event will include a welcome address from Minor League Baseball President & CEO Pat O'Conner, an interactive "lean in" activity and dialogue led by Cindy Moran, Talent Optimizer at MVP-Results; and a series of roundtable discussions guided by designated table moderators. During the event, you will have the opportunity to discuss with other attendees a variety of topics (as selected by the Women in Baseball Leadership Committee) that are relevant to women today, better understand how your experiences have shaped your career, and use the information you learn to empower yourself and your male and female colleagues in today's competitive workplace. Whether you're a first-year executive, a seasoned pro or someone in between, you will walk away with something to integrate into your life-both personally and professionally-to help elevate your success.

Each year, between two and four recipients will be chosen by the Women in Baseball Committee from a pool of deserving, talented, up-and-coming MiLB female executives. Each scholarship covers registration fees for the Baseball Winter Meetings and flight and hotel accommodations.

Coffee & Connections In 2017, Coffee & Connections was added to the Innovators Summit (formerly known as the Promotional Seminar) as an opportunity for attendees to gather before the day's events to network with women in the industry. In 2018, programming expanded to include speakers and interactive workshops that allowed attendees to openly discuss the day-to-day challenges and triumphs of women in the baseball industry, as well as share ideas on how to promote gender inclusion in the workplace. Coffee & Connections at the Innovators Summit features dialogue among both women and men attendees on how to promote gender inclusion in the workplace.
