Hearing from industry experts

You can expect Women in Leadership to kick off with an inspiring keynote speech, where you'll hear from industry leaders about their personal career journeys as well as breaking into traditionally male-dominated sectors. You'll gain insights into the challenges they had to overcome to become leaders and trailblazers in their respective fields.

The range of panel discussions is also a fantastic opportunity to hear from experts on various topics, such as 'Breaking Workplace Myths,' 'Empowering Women to Achieve Their Potential in the Workplace,' and 'Wellbeing at Work' - topics we know are at the forefront of students' minds as they enter to the world of work. You'll walk away feeling inspired and motivated!
