Career Conversations with Margie Hartley and Kate Ellis

Building Leadership Strength in Toxic Workplaces

Even our Federal Parliament has been labelled an environment of toxic low standards for our female politicians who have been democratically voted to represent us. So what does it really feel like to be a female politician in Australia and what can we learn from those that have endured, survived and in some cases even flourished? In this episode of Fast Track I speak with former Federal MP in the Rudd and Gillard Governments and author of ‘Sex Lies and Question Time’ Kate Ellis, about the lessons learnt and building leadership strength through adversity.
