Michelle Sheppard

Manager, Inclusion and Social Procurement, Level Crossing Removal Project

Michelle Sheppard, “Mama Mish”, will join us at Connect 2021 in the Diversity & Inclusion stream, and will sit on the panel for the IDAHOBIT showcase. She is a highly respected presenter, advocate, and trainer in the gender equity space and is currently the Manager, Inclusion & Social Procurement for LXRP.

As a transgender woman, she appreciates the difficulties within the grey created by the gender divide and not only traverses them herself, she willingly takes others on the ride with her.

Some of her high-profile media engagements include JOY 94.9, AFL, ANZ, BMW, and Channel 9.

She embodies dignity, grace and the change that is needed to make a positive difference in others’ lives, empowers women and challenges barriers to inclusion, discrimination, and harassment.
