50 women are taking the industry by storm
Australasian Lawyer has identified the top 50 women in the Australian legal profession in this year’s Elite Women report.
These women have shattered glass ceilings, broken barriers, and set the bar for legal excellence in their respective organisations and roles, showing other women how far they can go in the profession.
“If you want to succeed, you need to be resilient, work hard and have grit and passion”, says Elite Woman Jessica Rippon, who is principal and director at Construction Legal.
Elite Woman Breellen Warry highlighted tenacity as a factor in her success as a partner at Maddocks. Meanwhile, Elite Woman and Fletcher Clarendon director Ann-Maree Ventura demonstrates that it’s never too late to make your mark in the industry, even if you started on a different track.
Source Legal senior legal counsel Shauna Mounsey had to overcome gender discrimination from employers and peers alike, but has powered through to become one of this year’s Elite Women. She is joined by fellow winners Amber Warren, Caroline Callegari, Carly Ashwood, Justine Woods, and Nicole Murdoch.
