More than fifty women will come together at the Stamford Plaza Melbourne next Thursday, to learn leadership lessons from three guest panelists at the first Melbourne Women in Tourism Leadership Lunch event.

Corina Black, General Manager Sales, Commercial and Marketing at the Australian Grand Prix Corporation, Anne Jamieson, Director of Customer Experience at Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre and Melanie de Souza General Manager Digital, Marketing Services and Strategy at Visit Victoria, will take the stage to discuss their career pivotal leadership moments.

“It is important to support the tourism industry through these events as it nurtures and inspires us via networking and storytelling.  It allows us to connect, relate and share our leadership journey and tell stories beyond the facts and the figures.  Personally, I love learning from other inspiring women as we all often face similar challenges and opportunities, which we are unsure of how to navigate.  These events give us informal mentorship that often has a far greater impact than formal business training,” says Corina Black.

Along with a two course lunch with wine, guests will enjoy quality networking and stellar lucky door prizes include the chance to win a luxury overnight accommodation & breakfast package for two people at The Byron at Byron Resort; a Twin pack of award-winning Oakridge Wines or a Rodan & Fields Skincare pack donated by Tania Walker, R&F consultant.

The inaugural event will be held at the Stamford Plaza Melbourne on 23 November at noon. Click here for more details.
