Just had the great pleasure of attending Harrison.Ai’s International Women’s Day event. So many great takeaways from the panel and a joy to hear from others in the audience about the latest opportunities & challenges in the health/tech/start-up ecosystem. Notwithstanding all the fabulous advancements, today’s ASX top 20 still have nil female Chairs despite nearing equity for board composition. There is much still to be done. Some real thought provoking soundbites from the session: 1. It’s not good enough for individual female successes, we need to redesign the structures that got us here 2. Courage is a muscle 3. Take action; in your small world or team, what can you do to move the needle? 4. Don’t be afraid to shoot the shot…there are plenty of males out there doing that with far less experience and expertise than you & getting away with it 5. Be kind to yourself, have mentors, coaches. Acknowledge that on a rolling LTM basis you’re likely to have 33.3% crap days, 33.3% neutral and the balance awesome where you are your amazing self.
