Shaping Tomorrow:
The Impact of Today's Female Leaders on Future Talent and Diversity

Overview

Women make up only 29% of the tech workforce - our role is crucial for innovation and progress. Although there have been some advancements, data from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency reveals a significant underrepresentation of women in key decision-making positions in Australia, with only 13% of CEO positions, and 33% of Executive and General Manager positions being held by women.   Companies in the top quartile for gender diversity on their executive teams were 21% more likely to experience above-average profitability according to a recent study by McKinsey & Company. Addressing this disparity is essential to reducing the pay gap, whilst also future proofing Australia as our population ages.   

Join us for a Ladies' Long Lunch as we delve into the vital role of today's female leaders and discuss:

  • How can female leaders inspire and mentor the next generation of talent?
  • What benefits can organisations experience when they embrace diverse leadership? What role can female leaders play in accelerating these benefits?
  • With 24% of women resigning due to the lack of career advancement or opportunities, how can female leaders create programs or initiatives that nurture and develop emerging talent?

We look forward to welcoming you and hearing your insights.
