Is it true that men are viewed as the default leaders in business, while women are seen as caretakers? Is there an unconscious bias in recruitment and talent development? Do women lack the levels of self-assurance and confidence necessary to apply for top positions?

To tackle these and other important questions, Wits Business School is pleased to invite you to a panel discussion with three leading South African businesswomen:

• Lillian Barnard: Public Sector Lead at Microsoft
• Hellen Lebone: Regional HR Director at Hilton Africa & Indian Ocean
• Thuli Zulu: Head of State Owned Entities at Barclays Africa

Our panellists, who will invite participation from the audience, will also address issues such as:

• The ‘confidence gap’
• Diversity and equality in the workplace
• The glass ceiling for women in the public sector
• How to engage younger women and develop more senior female leaders
• Finding opportunities

We look forward to welcoming all participants in South African business/industry, men and women, to engage in the discussion!
