Wheelers Hill Secondary College

Susan Alberti’s talk was inspirational, everyone attending, mostly women were inspired by her reflections on her various leadership roles in particular that while working in very male dominated fields she has remained true to herself and her gender. It was also very personal and we appreciated her reflections about her husbands, daughters and her own health journeys. Those thoughts made the audience feel as if she was speaking directly to each and every one of us individually. Thank you Susan for sharing your life stories with emergency nurses and educators.

Many of them commented on the value of you story and perspective, particularly your views on life, health and the resilience that you display. The value you place on finding what makes you passionate; giving back when you can, and doing the most you can with each opportunity your are given will resonate with so many.

Rotary Club Glen Waverley

Susan Alberti AC, or Sue as she said she preferred, was a tour de force. Sue worked the room engaging with many people in the audience prior to her presentation. When it was her turn to speak, she drew breath and then fired a compelling non-stop account of her amazing life. She captivated a sophisticated audience and contributed hugely to the success of the night, which was an AFL themed evening, but which focussed on Diversity and the contribution of Women; The Indigenous Community and The LGBTI community. Her talk reflected and enforced this theme in a way that was better than we hoped.
Latrobe University
