Executing Women’s Initiatives Within Firms 2011

  • 31 Jan 2011
  • Sebel Surry Hills Sydney, Australia

Description

Throughout this one day connected forum, the following critical issues will be explored:

  • The realities of being a part-time partner
  • Building a strategic network for an effective and successful career in firms
  • Identifying and breaking through the myths surrounding women in firms
  • Making positive changes within firms for dynamic career paths for female employees
  • Creating inspiring role models that all women within firms can aspire to for the success of their careers
  • Utilising online networks and tools for the advancement of women s careers within firms
  • The ways in which firms are structured, and the methods they use to achieve their goals are still very much aimed toward those that can work full time hours, with little consideration toward women s needs and requirements when it comes to having families or just tending to other outside-of-work commitments. Unfortunately, regardless of the talents and strengths that women can bring to professional organisations, firms are still often unwilling to be more flexible and accepting to these needs, and are choosing instead to primarily choose the safe route that male employees can offer.
But by being a bit more flexible and understanding of today s busy lifestyle, and by ignoring the unconscious bias that comes with having female employees in firms, professional firms can utilise and make the most of the strengths that all their employees bring to their roles.
