Over 200 successful business women attended the latest Coleman Greig Women in Business Lunch on Friday 3rd June, 2011 at Parkroyal Parramatta to hear a live panel discussion with special guests Jessica Rowe, Media personality, newsreader and author, Karen Ledbury, Channel 7 Lifestyle Reporter, and Danielle Robertson, CEO of Dial-an-Angel on the topic Women Making a Difference.
Jessica, Karen and Danielle all shared their personal stories with the audience, their trials and tribulations and how they balanced the challenges of motherhood, family and work commitments. They gave an insight into the women that had made a difference in their lives and allowed the audience to reflect on their own circumstances.
The Coleman Greig Women In Business is Western Sydney’s most successful networking forum and is a regular fixture on the Western Sydney business calendar with around 200 guests attending each event. Co-sponsored by St George Bank Parramatta, Moore Stephens and 360HR, every Forum event supports a charity and at this lunch the money raised went to Variety, the Children’s Charity and Beyond Blue.
Guests at the event, which included senior female executives and professionals from across the Western Sydney region, generously donated over $5,000 in support of these charities through a range of fundraising activities.
According to Susan Warda, Principal of Coleman Greig Lawyers, “The Women in Business Forum continues to deliver inspiring and engaging speakers to business women in Western Sydney. We have raised over $11,000 for charities this year through the Women in Business Forum which is a great achievement.” she said.
“The Women in Business Forum is Western Sydney’s leading networking forum for female executives. It has become an important and highly anticipated event on the female executives’ calendar. At these forums senior businesswomen from a wide range of organisations meet on a regular basis to discuss issues, hear keynote speakers and network with other business women.”
Our next Women In Business Lunch will be held on Wednesday 24th August at Waterview and will feature guest speaker Christine Nixon, former Victorian Police Commissioner.
