Will Australia deliver on women in leadership?

When will we see equal opportunity for women to lead in business and the community? World-wide there is growing pressure for increasing the participation of women in leadership.
Seven countries have now adopted mandatory regulation to ensure greater participation of women at company board level. Will Australia's voluntary approach match this international progress?

Featuring influential and insightful panellists, this provocative Q&A forum will explore the issue of women participating at the highest levels of endeavour and leadership. Be sure to add your voice to a debate that will ultimately determine when women finally break through the glass ceiling.

Introduced by Professor Thomas Clarke & Alice Klettner, UTS Centre for Corporate Governance and lead researchers for the Workplace Gender Equality Agency’s 2012 Australian Census of Women in Leadership.

Moderated by Deborah Cameron
Broadcast journalist, community relations specialist and facilitator, Deb Cameron is inspired by the cause of growing women in leadership.

Claire Braund, Executive Director of Women on Boards
Elizabeth Bryan, Chairman, Caltex Australia Ltd
Verity Firth, Chief Executive Officer, Public Education Foundation Ltd
