In Australia, we are committed to developing the best talent for our business and encourage our people to subscribe to professional industry bodies that support their current work commitments and career development plans. We believe such memberships create opportunities to network with peers and provide a platform to build a greater appreciation of industry trends as well as global economic and business issues.
Accenture has formed an exciting new relationship with international women’s network: 85Broads. We are the first organisation in Australia to partner with 85Broads – as this internationally renowned organisation continues to extend the network of talented and accomplished women globally.
We were delighted to have Susan Payne, CEO-Emergent Asset Management attend our International Women’s Day celebrations in Australia during early March. Susan is the head of the London Chapter of 85 Broads, the world’s largest professional women’s network, and advocates women's issues in the workplace.
