Perth Business Chicks Breakfast featuring Ms Ita Buttrose

Friday 7^th September | 6:50am for 7:15 – 9am | Perth, Australia | Hosted by Business Chicks 

Ita Buttrose needs little introduction, she is a woman of many firsts. Ita was the first woman to be appointed to the board of Australian Consolidated Press and News Limited and still holds the title as the youngest ever Editor of The Australian Women’s Weekly. Ita has forever changed how women are perceived and valued in the workplace; she has truly paved the way. At a time where women did not hold positions of power, Ita rose to the level of the best blokes in business and didn’t throw her femininity away in the process.
