It is becoming increasingly important for companies to foster the leadership potential of their employees. Research has shown how building a diverse leadership team can improve financial returns and make teams more efficient. Companies with diverse leadership are better placed for innovation, winning top talent and improving customer orientation, employee satisfaction and decision-making.

The Women in Roads, Rail and Transport Infrastructure Leadership Summit, taking place on 28-31 May at the Swissôtel Sydney, will help companies drive positive organisational change by providing attendees with the skills and strategies they need to be confident leaders and communicators.
