Telstra Business Women’s Awards

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Telstra Business Women’s Awards now celebrating 16 years.

The Telstra Business Women’s Awards highlight the depth, diversity and talent of Australian business women. The Awards celebrate the women whose extraordinary stories of achievement demonstrate the passion, expertise and determination that are needed for success.

These exceptional business women provide inspiration and encouragement for those following in their footsteps, and for every person across the Australian business sector. The Awards play a vital role in the drive for gender diversity, with women still facing challenges in furthering their business ambitions.

At Telstra we are proud that our diversity program has gained international recognition through a 2010 Catalyst Award honouring innovation in the recruitment, development and advancement of women in management.

Telstra has a long-standing commitment to the Telstra Business Women’s Awards and this year will reveal incredible stories that will inspire the nation.

I encourage you to join us in championing women’s talents and aspirations through your nominations and entries for the Awards in 2010.
