ASIS INTERNATIONAL WA CHAPTER PRESENTS

An afternoon Webinar – Part of the “If they see it, they can be it” series

Dream Big and Believe

With Guest Speaker – Jo Stewart-Rattray (CISM, CGEIT, CISA, CRISC,CP)

This is the story of a kid from the Australian bush who from the age of 7 and after watching a particular movie wanted to work at the UN in order to help others. It took a lot of her life to come to pass but she kept hold of the dream and believed that she really could do it. The journey is only part of the story though the experiences of her time at the United Nations were life changing for her and indeed the leanings immense. She did what she wanted to do by dreaming big and believing.
