Turning Tables: How to win and avoid losing out over sexism

Shruti Sardeshmukh
Executive co-director of the Centre for Enterprise Dynamics in Global Economies at UniSA

A recent study by UniSA found that when it comes to side hustles and starting your own business, investors regularly ask men how they are going to win, but they ask women how they will avoid losing. This Masterclass is about thriving in your workplace and beating sexism when launching a business. Good for entrepreneurs, female-start up founders or those with a side hustle.

Key discussion points and workshop areas:

  • Don’t let self-censorship hold you back.
  • How to just start.
  • Using defensive and strategic tactics to win out over sexism.
  • How to support and compete with other women
