The Hon Michael Kirby

Join the Hon Michael Kirby for an evening of frank scrutiny as he explains why sexuality inclusion is good for business. Hon Michael Kirby a Judge, UN representative and an ambassador for the GLBT equality network, will discuss equality in the workplace during this Brisbane exclusive event. Michael Kirby has led a long and illustrious career, including being Australia’s longest serving Judge, Deputy President of the Australian Conciliation and Arbitration Commission, President of the Court of Appeal of Solomon Islands, served on three university governing bodies and been appointed the UNDP Global Commision of HIV and Law. Coming from the era of 'don't ask; don't tell' Michael Kirby has witnessed the positive changes accompanied with embracing diversity of sexual orientation. Aware that there is still prejudice and hostility in some quarters, Michael Kirby aims to drive the issue home that sexuality inclusion, both in the public and private sectors, is not only just and proper, but promotes loyalty and productivity and creates a profit increase. Michael Kirby will give a 30-45min presentation with a 30-45min Q&A session. Seated tickets will be available only through glbn.org.au
