Did you know in Australia...

• only 32% of key management positions are made up by women, while women make up half of the private sector workforce (WGEA, 2019);
• the national gender pay gap is 14% (ABS, 2020); and
• women make up 35% of all business owners, compared with 1.3 million (65%) men business owners in Jan 2019 (Australian Government, 2020)?

As a female student aspiring to become successful in IT, business or other male-dominated sectors, what do these figures mean for your career development?

While Australia, in many aspects, is making significant progress towards gender equality, we want you to be equipped, empowered and prepared.

This event will provide you with many insightful and valuable lessons. They are lively, eye-opening and realistic stories from our high-achieving female guests regarding their professional accomplishments.
