Women In NAPA (WIN): Building a Supportive Community [THA 441]

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, and Today's Class

This episode spotlights the launch of Women in NAPA (WIN), a new initiative created to celebrate NAPA’s 100th anniversary by empowering women throughout the NAPA family, including shop owners, technicians, warehouse employees, sales team, and corporate team members alike. WIN provides a dedicated networking platform and distinctive “bolt bracelets” to cultivate connections and community. The discussion explores the unique challenges women face in the male-dominated automotive industry, emphasizing the value of mentorship, training, and representation. WIN also aims to inspire the next generation, supporting recruitment efforts and promoting diversity across the industry. With a focus on professional growth, personal development, and work-life balance, the program aspires to help women learn, lead, and thrive.
