Fortescue Metals Group’s outgoing CEO Elizabeth Gaines addressed the Diggers and Dealers forum on Tuesday. She lamented the continued lack of gender diversity among the senior ranks of Australian-listed companies, noting that she became the first female CEO of a major Australian mining company in 2018 and this has not changed much since. Gaines also noted that just seven per cent of speakers at the annual mining industry event are women, while she highlighted the fact that women comprise half of Fortescue’s board.
