PRESIDENT'S REPORT APRIL 2023 EDITION
Welcome to this special April edition. It is with great excitement that Women In Pest Management (WIPM) is able to offer you two full days in July of networking events and industry Leadership Development Workshops. The WIPM committee have put in many hours of voluntary time to make sure these events are successful, and we are pleased to be able to present a stellar line up of speakers.
2023 is shaping up to be a very busy year for the Australian pest industry. As a committee we have really taken the time to take note what people are asking from our industry bodies. There has been a significate shift in what they want and that is more support, more education, and more events that is not only geared towards just business owners, but employees as well. We are delighted to have been given the opportunity to run our workshops and events alongside the inaugural Termite Professional Conference on the Sunshine Coast, making it more attractive for employers to want to bring along their staff. There is no denying the value of faceto-face events and the effectiveness of meeting other like-minded people in this industry. It leads to stronger, more meaningful business relationships.
The workshops have been put together to help women in pest management to improve their business management skills, with a particular focus on leadership, managing and developing people, and wellbeing. The program has been carefully chosen to include speakers who effectively lead people, inspire commitment in the workforce, and manage change.
You will walk away from these workshops feeling inspired, more focused, and more productive. You will find new ideas to implement from great mentors. You will learn more about being a female in this industry and find out more about specific companies. You will discover new opportunities.
PresidentWe are looking forward to the Termite Professional Conference gala dinner where we will be announcing the winners of the WIPM Recognition Awards. We encourage you to keep nominating outstanding women in this industry. These women shine and set the benchmark for others to follow.
I have attended many industry events, conferences and workshops worldwide for thirteen years and if I can offer any advice is that you only get back what you put in, so step out of your comfort zone and introduce yourself to as many of us as you can. Remember we are all here for the same reasons.
Full details and how to book are in this newsletter. The WIPM committee cannot wait to meet more of you. There are still tickets left if you have not yet secured a spot. Join us, support us, and make these events count.

SPEAKER 1: NATHALY HAEREN
FOUNDER AND MANAGER OF PESTY GIRLS SYDNEY TOPIC: CAREER PATHS FOR WOMEN IN PEST MANAGEMENT
While most pest control company vehicles are wrapped in pictures of cockroaches, spiders, or a rat or two, very few are seen driving around suburban Sydney sporting a red stiletto heel. Nathaly Haeren, founder and manager of the female-only pest control business, wouldn’t have it any other way. “So many trades, in any field, are male dominated,” Ms Haeren said. “At Pesty Girls, we want to be completely different and niche. That was the main reason for having a female staffed business: the prospect of having a great name.” Ms Haeren wasn’t always at the coalface of pest control, crawling in subfloors and examining roof cavities. The business owner started in the industry in 2001 by working in the office for a pest control company. Although her main job was to create new business, she started to take on more managerial responsibilities and eventually found herself running the place. In 2009, Ms Haeren started Pesty Girls in Sydney’s inner west. Like most ventures, the first few years of getting her business off the ground were hard work. Ms Haeren supported herself by working at Globe Australia in sales three days a week – a blessing in disguise, as it gave her an opportunity to gain an in-depth knowledge of the latest products and chemicals. Soon, the business grew and Ms Haeren quit her job to work on it full-time. Her hard work paid off and in 2014, Pesty Girls won the local Inner West Business Awards for outstanding service to the community. As for working in a male dominated industry, Ms Haeren and her team relish the challenge. Even though she gets the odd jibe now and then, running a female pest control business has its advantages
