It was a pleasure to host a panel of industry experts at the North West Branch’s Annual Breakfast Workshop recently. Ray Balks, Susan Frater, Priscilla Puchala, Kris Sheehan and Jacinta Mannion all shared their Secrets of Success with honesty, passion and wisdom. Each panellist’s stories spoke of the power of resilience, authenticity and mentorship in shaping a career within the resources industry. Susan was also able to share her personal experience of watching the Women in Mining Network grow over the years as she is the sister of one of the founders Donna Frater AM.

A huge thank you to our panellists, our sponsors, Jessica Pereira for facilitating the panel discussion and to everyone who joined us and helped make the event a success especially our sponsors Whitehaven Coal, Idemitsu Australia Pty Ltd., Mitch Kelaher and Stripes Group
