I personally think that it is fine for this event to take place. However, we should be promoting not only female leadership in STEM careers, but also female leadership interaction with males in STEM. While I'm not sure how it is best to do this, I'm certain that it'd be more beneficial to cater to female leadership interactions.
Yes - thanks Mark. That's what I was supposed to write.

And I do agree with your second statement. While this event has its place, another opportunity could be to figure out a way to promote integration of females directly in male dominated environments.
