VISIONARY LEADERSHIP CAN DRIVE TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE ACROSS AN
ENTIRE SECTOR. VISIONARY LEADERS INSPIRE, empower, enthuse and
respect. They work with you to make change happen. This is what the
Industry Mentoring Network in STEM (IMNIS) is all about!With a shared
sense of purpose and desire for change, leaders across Australia’s
industry and academic STEM sectors join forces to foster a culture of
innovation and collaboration through mentoring. Together, they are
developing a new generation of PhD graduates who can engage with
industry, kick-start collaborations, understand their career options,
and network and transition with confidence across professional
sectors.
This event celebrates their vision, their leadership, their drive and
importantly, their unwavering commitment to the professional
development of tomorrow’s STEM leaders to create a better future for
all of us.
