Leading Women's Profile Exhibition

International Women’s Day, launch of Leading Women’s Profile at Deloitte

The exhibition had it’s first showing at the Women in Rotary International Women’s day breakfast at Crown. There were 1,200 in attendance and this video was shown at the breakfast.

The portraits were warmly received and I particularly loved talking to all the school groups who came to study them and discuss women’s paths to success.

With the help of some Rotary volunteers we got the portraits over to Deloitte for their IWD morning tea on March 8. I asked the 200 strong audience to read and discuss the 3 key success factors of the leading women painted that were listed in the catalogue. I wanted them to reflect on what success means to them and what they need to build it.

The portraits acknowledge those painted, their efforts, their success and how they by succeeding - help all women. Acknowledging others is something we can all do. It is a skill worth developing. May 2019 be a year of being really good at acknowledging others - particularly women.
