Billionaires and tech bros have been making limited public comments on the tariffs, but are believed to have had much more to say when they headed to Mar-a-Lago recently to “talk common sense” to Trump on the issue. "Some of the richest and most powerful people on the planet will stay silent when human rights and democracy are attacked, but will speak up once their personal wealth and interests are threatened," writes Angela Priestley. https://lnkd.in/dX-_MUWK

News and views for career-minded women.
About us
Women's Agenda is a publication for career-minded, time-poor women who want to stay ahead of the conversation. Our team of coffee-loving, media junkies enjoy nothing more than waking up early to make your business day better. We determine the day's agenda before most people hit snooze on their smart phones, so you can get informed and productive. Our morning update features an edit of the day's key issues - a quick conversational scan to help you prepare for any elevator ride - as well as our latest views on making careers, work and business better for women. We're an independent publication first launched by Private Media in 2012 and acquired by its founding editor Angela Priestley in 2016. Our business survives off advertising, sponsors, and by helping organisations with content strategy and marketing, especially those looking to engage women. After publishing more than 1000 newsletters, 7000 stories and managing dozens of events, we intimately understand the needs and desires of career-minded, time-poor women. Indeed, we are such women ourselves! We're busy and sleep deprived but seriously passionate about what we do. We also all work flexibly, managing priorities ranging from kids, to travel, to writing books and building businesses. Get in touch with us at admin@womensagenda.com.au

Women have watched gender equity get trotted out on the campaign trail like a side of salty fries – a quick bite between the meatish burgers of budget forecasts and yeasty buns of border talk, writes Madeleine Hanger (Grummet)🚀. There are mentions of diversity and “listening” and policies for “ordinary Australians” but what women actually need right now is extraordinary political leadership and more policy commitments that talk to them directly. #auspol #FederalElection https://lnkd.in/g_5UjWT5
