INSPIRING TOMORROW’S LEADERS
18
Our commitment to have a greater impact In 2018 we delivered our pilot conference and established a solid network of phenomenal role models. For our 2019-2020 cohort of students we increased the numbers to 100 students and added after school sessions which covered 4 additional topics. For our 2020-2021 cohort of students we will increase the number of additional sessions to 6 per school and add another sponsor hosted career day with a focus on the tech sector. To increase engagement with role models, we are working with our current network to promote a greater range of skills and professional experience to inspire the girls.
The current profile of models include 22% from the financial services sector and we plan to expand the breadth of career journeys to include more from the creative and media industries. We are also working with our network to develop work experience and mentoring initiatives as well. We are committed to continuously improve the overall experience of the students, meet their needs with more one on one interfacing with the role models, give them more exposure to career opportunities, help foster a sense of community, and improve the learning of the skills on offer.
