It’s a supportive space to tackle career progression, discuss work worries, workshop challenges and build connections. It’s for any type of career conversation, and for any stage in your career.

You will be connected with the leaders in Brisbane who have walked the path. They are the inspirational CEOs, Founders, Executives and Directors who want to back the women in their community to keep moving forward. Along with other striving and emerging mentees. It’s a powerful hour.
