Women in Leadership Summit Australia

The Women in Leadership Summit focuses on business empowerment, leadership and career advancement for emerging and established women leaders. Women from all industries come together to learn and be inspired by successful leaders, and gain the tools and inspiration needed to take the next step in their career to become confident and effective leaders.

Regardless of gender or role – whether you are a board director, CEO, senior or middle manager, entrepreneur or emerging leader, the Women in Leadership Summit provides you with platforms and opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals, expand your network and build upon your leadership skills.

In 2019 we had Lee Lin Chin, the iconic former SBS news reader unearth unique leadership gems from one of Australia’s most recognisable and respected newsreaders at the Women Leaders Institute’s Launch Party.
