YWCA Canberra gets the usually bleak winter season off to a roaring start with the She Leads feminist confab:

This year, we have crafted our program to explore the theme ‘Challenge’ – focusing on stories of overcoming personal and professional challenges and experiences from women leaders who are transforming their workplaces, industries and communities. You’ll have the chance to hear from our MC Tracey Spicer, and keynote speakers Clementine Ford, Michelle Deshong, Drisana Levitzke-Gray, and Nakkiah Lui.

Corporate/governance sector attendees need cough up only $800 for the one day event, with NGO/self-funded attendees paying only $600. The night before two hour cocktail event is a fantastic bargain at only $77 – drinks not included.

The conference costs a mere $152.38 per hour (a bargain $114.29 per hour for NGO/self-funded). It’s bound to be a sellout. Those particularly interested in Clementine Ford’s presentation will outlay a negligible $88.90/66.67 for her 35 minute presentation. Money well spent.
