Dress for the job you want, not the job you have!

Never underestimate the power of self-belief. Know in your heart that you’re capable of achieving great things. Only surround yourself with positive people that build you up, support you and believe in you for they will become your rock in times of need. Back yourself and be amazed at what you can accomplish when you put your mind to it.
Deborah Hutton, Publisher and Founder, Balance by Deborah Hutton
Be true to yourself and don’t let work rule your life. Family must come first.
Deb Knight, Co-host Weekend Today | Host of Financial Review Sunday and Nine News presenter
Your reputation is everything. Word hard, treat everyone with respect and always try to do the right thing.
Kirsten Galliott, Editor InStyle Magazine | Ambassador Dress for Success Sydney
Minister for Women “Don’t hesitate when taking the next step. Take a risk and back yourself. Men don’t get bogged down in the qualifications they need for a role. Women need to stop believing they need to be overqualified to do the job. There’s no substitute for getting your hands dirty and getting experience under your belt.
Pru Goward, New South Wales Minister for Planning | NSW
If it’s meant to be, it’s up to me.
