This event will feature a panel of incredible women discussing 'Parity and Politics: the push-and-pull factors that influence gender diversity in strategic decision making'.

Women in Strategic Decision Making (WiSDM) is a community aiming to grow the number of women in strategic decision making and provide support to women decision makers.

We know that diversity of opinion is key to achieving great outcomes in decisions that matter. We are committed to having women represented and supported in decision making roles.

We share experiences, build best practice and provide a pathway for women decision makers of the future. We identify gaps and obstacles that make it hard for women to participate in strategic decisions, and create momentum around these issues to effect change.

We seek to educate and inspire others to take action, and welcome people of all gender identities in our community.

Join us to expand you network and learn from our panel or amazing women to discuss 'Parity and Politics: the push-and-pull factors that influence gender diversity in strategic decision making'.
