Sunshine Coast- BWA Breakfast Connect: Navigating Business & Leadership

Kick-start your Tuesday with purpose, insight, and great connections.

Join Business Women Australia for breakfast at gorgeous Curlys on the Boardwalk with freshly brewed coffee and a healthy coastal spread. Connect with talented, experienced women in business to share ideas, forge collaborations, and champion one another’s success.

This isn’t “just another” networking event. Kathy McKenzie – founder of FireUp Coaching – and strategic marketing expert Tracy Steffensen of Marketing Angels will guide a facilitated conversation on the real-world opportunities and challenges facing women in business and leadership today.
