Do companies really care about diversity at the leadership level? How do they feel about quotas? What really goes on behind the scenes at the executive level?

Priscilla Bryans (Partner in HSF’s Corporate Governance and Head Office Advisory team) has over a decade of experience advising the CEOs and boards of Australia’s largest and most powerful companies. Safe to say, she has a lot to say about diversity on boards and trends in corporate governance.

Come along to hear from Priscilla discuss this important and highly topical issue.

When: Tuesday 24 September, 1 pm - 2 pm

Where: Room 611

Are you an innovator? Are you interested in proving your creativity on an international scale?

The Universitas 21 & PwC Innovation Challenge is an online competition where postgraduate students from U21 Universities have the opportunity to ‘pitch’ solutions to an innovation challenge determined by PwC. The overall winner will be awarded a VIP employability experience in Dubai, sponsored by PwC, tailored to that student’s career development needs.

The challenge:

How can universities help individuals gain a broader perspective on the long-term impact and consequences of their day-to-day actions on people, society and the environment? What types of jobs will an environmentally-sensitive economy need, and what is the best way to prepare students for them?

You can submit a response via The University of Melbourne's website. The University will then shortlist responses and help you prepare a three-minute video submission to send to U21 and PwC to be in the running.
