Engine Room Podcast #23 - Unpacked
In this installment of the Engine Room Unpacked, Andrew and Sue revisit the next handful of episodes and discuss the key elements that impressed them the most. Since we recorded this episode, Elixir have secured 5 scholarships for the Practice Managers course via the Women in Finance and Economics Scholarship Program. If you - or someone you know - would love to do the course to assist them to enter, re-enter and achieve leadership roles across financial services, but can’t afford the $2,500 fee (able to demonstrate financial need), they can apply for one of the scholarships through the FAAA.
