An inspiring leader

Shivani Gupta moved from India to Australia with her family at the age of 11, a decision her family made to ensure that she would have the same opportunities as her brothers. Shivani didn't take this opportunity lightly, working hard and graduating with a double degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, closely followed by completing an MBA. In this episode we also talk to Shivani about her life changing trip to Nepal that inspired her to start her own business. Shivani won the Telstra Business Women's awards, EY award and is an honorary member of the Golden Key Society. She has run several million dollar businesses, is an author of 8 books and has spoken to over 150,000 people globally in 18 countries, all driven by her passion for supporting girls and women in engineering their own career and confidence. This episode is hosted by two of The University of Queensland's Women in Engineering student leaders; Sophie Bates and Esandi Kalugalage. Connect with Sophie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophie-bates-7a9a38186/Connect with Esandi on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/esandi-kalugalage-9b39401a0/
