Back for its fourth year, the Women in Leadership Summit 2019 returns to Sydney’s Seymour Centre from the 24-27 September
This educationally focused four-day event will see 35 inspiring leaders guide over 500 Australian women in business to ‘Take Action’ in their leadership journey and cultivate meaningful change for future generations.
Dana Lightbody, Executive Director and Chair of The Leadership Institute, the minds behind the signature Women in Leadership Summit (WILS) says, “This year is set to be our best yet. Our theme ‘Take Action’ is focused on the need for women to lead the way by creating their own opportunities and helping others to have the confidence to do so, by sharing experiences and equipping them with the tools they need.”
#WILSummit19 will feature: Inspiring keynotes by Carrie Bickmore OAM, Alannah Hill, Ann Sherry AO; career focused case-studies with Kendra Banks, Erica Berchtold, Suzanne Steele and Susan Martin; panel discussions with Alison Rice, Chelsea Bonner and Susan Anderson; and interactive workshops curated by Amanda MacLean, Nell Wilson and Noa Sheer.
Alannah Hill, Iconic Australian designer, author and stylist, who is speaking on perseverance, dedication and success, says, “Success only comes once you understand your mind, our thoughts are that powerful. So, stop procrastinating and go and create the life you deserve. There will be fear, there will be failure. But if you’re not committed it will not work.”

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.
Please consider making a contribution today.
Thank you for your support.
