The event webpage read: Vic ICT for Women and ACS Victoria’s ‘ICT for Women in Victoria’ Special Interest Grop’(SIG) invite you,your colleagues and your friends to join us in celebrating this day by acknowledging those men in our lives who are champions of change.This topic has been chosen as it reflects the global theme of International Women’s Day 2014 – “Inspiring Change” and it is a topic being discussed by CEOs locally such as Mike Smith, ANZ CEO, who is quoted as saying “It strikes me that we need to celebrate men who have a track record of hiring, developing and advancing women – but actually these men are quite rare. Making inclusive leaders the norm rather than the exception – be they men or women – might just be the circuit breaker we need on this issue.” – Mike Smith This was criticised as an inappropriately male-centered event when scheduled for International Women's Day.
