Shared Stories from the Defence Industry, curated for you.
TFTC aims to support, inspire and lead our individual participants to imagine and achieve their ‘personal bests’ and career goals. The program has already given 144 women working in Defence and Defence Industry an opportunity for mentorship that they wouldn’t have likely had otherwise.
