How does female competition manifest itself and is it keeping women from experiencing their full potential in business and at home?
Rachael Oakes-Ash will discuss female competition - what it is, where to find it and how to bring it out into the open in order to work better in the office and play better after work. In her new book, Anything She Can Do I Can Do Better, Rachael has interviewed fifty prominent women from around the globe - from formidable US gossip columnist Liz Smith, Dame Anita Roddick of The Body Shop, Senator Natasha Stott Despoja, Wendy McCarthy, Emma Tom to Miss Australia - and in her inimitable style, shares their and her own experiences and theories on female competition.
Rachael Oakes-Ash ate her first solids at ten months, said her first word a month later and has been talking between mouthfuls ever since. Her first book, Good Girls Do Swallow has gone on to be published in the UK, Germany & Canada and inspired an award winning documentary presented, co-produced & written by Rachael in association with Foxtel's The Lifestyle Channel. Rachael is regularly seen as a panel comedienne on Channel 7's Girl Talk, heard on 2Day FM and on BBC Radio. Her writing has been published in Marie Claire, Cleo, B Magazine, Women's Health, Money Magazine, & Sunday Life magazine of The Sun Herald and The Sunday Age
