According to the 2021 Census, women are a mere 12% of the owners of medium and large Australian architectural practices (those employing over 20 people ). This is 52 women – just 5% of all women owners! What is going on? What are the impediments to ownership in larger businesses? How can these be addressed – in terms of structures and systems, and professional cultures and habits? The Champions of Change Architecture Group has explored this from two angles. One action group has surveyed senior women within larger practices to understand the challenges faced and examined structural problems in terms of ownership models and agreements. The result is a comprehensive set of recommendations. A second project has conducted eight interviews with women in equity ownership positions, discussing the role of sponsorship in helping them navigate ‘the last mile’ to ownership.
