What a fabulous morning of learning and connection we had at ISACA Canberra Chapter’s SheLeadsTech Canberra breakfast. SheLeadsTech founder Jo Stewart-Rattray discussed the need for more women in tech and the barriers to gender and cultural diversity - these stats have worsened since COVID! We must shift the dial on this! Sponsorship, male allyship, and educating young people on gender norms are all key. Jo had a call to action for us, which I extend to all of you who have capacity to sponsor, coach, mentor, educate and encourage and promote women and girls pursuing careers in STEM. We made great connections across our table – I’m sure we will continue the connections and important discussions! Dr Rina Bruinsma (GAICD), Kayelle Drinkwater, Dr Lubna Alam, Dr Rosetta Romano, Danette Fenton-Menzies, Candice Zhang, FCPA, GAICD, Melanie O'Brien, Permenthri Pillay. Thank you for a great morning SheLeadsTech Canberra! #womeninstem #diversity #inclusion #ISACACanberra

Oooh the covergence!! Sitting at the SheLeadsTech Canberra breakfast at the ISACA Canberra Chapter conference at the same table as the wonderful Annie Haggar ❤️😎 Excited to catch up with some of my favourite clever people, conversations, nerd stuff, stickers, and adding collaborators to my plans to take over the world - or at least to make some noise and add some colour to every day. ❤️ Boo 🌈🦄
