PANDA brings women in leadership together - in a curated network and a space for exchange, mutual support, and personal as well as professional growth.
The PANDA Story
Why PANDA? There is a parallel between pandas and women in leadership: they are rare. Now, one might object that women in executive positions are at least not endangered. While this is encouraging, it is not enough for us. We want more of this species.
PANDA was launched in Berlin in 2013 by Isabelle Hoyer and Stuart B. Cameron with an event and an initial 100 women. Since then, PANDA has developed into one of the most established networks for women in leadership in Germany.
The PANDA Mission
Become part of a curated community of women in leadership - and those who want to become leaders.
50/50 – Our Why
We stand for genuine power distribution: 50% women in leadership. Visible, effective, and self-evident – at all levels, in all industries.
Cooperation - Our Principle
We break competitive patterns and bundle energy for more female leadership – collaboratively, constructively, and effectively.
Continuity – Our Strength
Equal opportunity is not a trend. We stay on it – persistently and long-term. Because change requires stamina, attitude, and clear goals.

Community & Cooperation
We believe in genuine collaboration instead of competition. We support, inspire, and strengthen each other and do not think in silos. Joining forces with other initiatives is part of that for us.
Drive to Shape & Mindset
We are not satisfied with the status quo: 50% women in leadership - that is what we actively want to shape, open up paths, walk them, and pave them for others.
Diversity & Openness
We celebrate diversity as a strength. Different life paths, experiences, and perspectives are what make us a powerful and relevant network. Discriminatory and exclusionary ideologies have no place here.
PANDA Ambassadors
Almost 100 voluntary Ambassadors fill the PANDA Network with life and energy. They shape events and topics - throughout Germany and with various focuses. Our community thrives on this - and for that, we say THANK YOU! 🫶🏼
OUR TEAM
Our small team rocks events, holds the threads of the network together, tinkers with our offering – and finally wants to see more women in leadership! 100% remote, 100% dedicated to the cause.
