What We Do
Programmes & Campaigns
Over the last two decades, Global Women thought leaders have advocated for practical strategies and policy reform to address the multiple barriers to women’s progression and economic security
The programme is an extraordinary accelerator – a chance for participants to widen their lens to take in the big picture, and to see their own leadership in the context of the futures they want to be part of creating.
Our Breakthrough Leaders and Activate leadership programmes have catapulted forwards the careers of over 400 women. Our Champions for Change Partners, Chairs and CEOs of major New Zealand businesses committed to diversity and inclusion, represent more than 170,000 employees.
ELEVATE is a high-impact pilot designed to stretch, challenge, and connect mid-career leaders stepping into enterprise-level roles. Unlike traditional leadership training, ELEVATE is hands-on, using live challenges and peer networks to build capability, deliver immediate organisational impact, and embed long-term leadership growth.
