It's time for the main event, the Debate.
Now those who are new to this event, just to let you know how this thing works: we choose six amazing and successful Queensland women to take part in our debate each year, we throw a topic at them related to women and their continuing career journey, we lock them in a small room without food, water or natural light for several days and then we thrust them onstage and expect them to make us laugh, cry and debate the current socio-economic challenges facing women around the world. Sounds easy right?
Today's debaters are "ordinary" women doing something "extraordinary". The point is, they have families and jobs and, for a brief moment, will assist us all to reflect upon and appreciate the trials and triumphs of women.
They will be debating the topic "that heels have a rightful place in the boardroom". Should be fiery stuff!
