The Career Secrets Women Learn Too Late: with 7-Eleven's CEO, UniSuper's CPO & EY's AI Enablement Lead
Description
There are career lessons that change everything. And most women don't learn them until it's too late.
You've worked hard. You've stayed loyal. You've done everything right. But somewhere along the way, the rules changed. And nobody told you.
This episode is the live recording from Fearless & Future Ready, our Sisterhood Social event featuring three of Australia's most influential women in business and AI.
One of them has never had a set career plan. One spent 26 years at Telstra before becoming a CEO. One is driving AI adoption across 10,000 people. And all three sat in a room and told the truth.
This is the conversation most women don't get access to until it's too late.
