Women in Leadership: Ita Buttrose AC OBE

Ita Buttrose is the second woman to ever chair Australia’s largest cultural institution, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). The ABC has long been one of our most trusted public institutions and is increasingly relied upon to ask the difficult questions and present unbiased information for all Australians. In recent years, it has experienced leadership and governance issues and operates in a highly politicised environment at a time of significant technological and societal change.

At this event, CEDA asks timely questions about the role of the national public broadcaster – what should the ABC do, for who, and how?
