Diversity and Inclusion in the Australian Health & Safety Industry
Wednesday 26th September – 1:55 – 2:45
Now in its second year, the Women in Safety and Health (WISH) network remains committed to its strategic actions around mentoring, research and thought leadership, social media and collaboration events and more recently advocacy. But are we doing enough? The purpose of this presentation is to present the results of the 2017 WISH Leadership Survey, to outline the 2018 activities and actions of WISH and to provoke/challenge and provide worked examples to the audience as to how it can do more to assist the beautiful goal of Diversity and Inclusion across the Australian Health & Safety Industry.
One half of Bookenz Leadership, Kelly is a change facilitator, individual coach, and business mentor. Kelly supports the Australian Health & Safety industry through her work as a consultant, speaker, and Non-Executive Director – with a specialty in risk and audit and operational excellence. With a long history in playing sport, Kelly is enthusiastic, pragmatic, up-to-date and has a proven track record in delivering outcomes (often in challenging and high-pressure environments) and in ‘serving up’ results to clients.
Kelly specialises in working with people and teams who are disengaged, ‘stuck’ or facing challenges with their work. She is passionate about business development and about assisting Boards, Leadership Groups/teams and individuals through organisational culture challenge and change. Lastly, Kelly is current chair of the Women in Safety and Health (WISH) network and is a passionate advocate for the celebration of diversity and inclusion.
