The Future of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Sport |
|
Join us for an inspiring and insightful event featuring Elizabeth Shaw, a leading voice in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). As a Partner in PwC's Workforce Advisory and former President of UN Women Australia, Beth brings a wealth of experience and knowledge across various industries.
In this keynote address, Beth will delve into the evolving conversation around DEI, addressing the growing debate about its role and impact across sectors, including sport. She will share her perspectives on the challenges, misconceptions, and future of DEI and how we can navigate these discussions to drive meaningful change in our industry.
Beth's remarkable contributions to driving change across business, government, and the community sector have earned her significant recognition. The Australian Financial Review named her one of Australia’s 100 most influential women, and WA Business News awarded her the Professional Services Award at the 40Under40 Awards.
This event is open to all, encouraging both men and women to engage in meaningful discussions about the future of DEI in sports. Don't miss this opportunity to hear from one of Australia's most influential women and gain valuable insights into driving change in your organisation and community.
We are also excited to announce that this event will serve as the kick-start for the 2025 Women of Sport Emerging Leadership Program. This program aims to empower and develop the next generation of female leaders in the sports industry. Join us to be part of this transformative journey towards a more inclusive and equitable future in sports. |
