SUMMARY:Members Hui 2026
DESCRIPTION:Rotorua | Te Puia | 21–23 May 2026\nConnected. Courageous. Changemakers.\nThe 2026 Members’ Hui invites our community to pause and reconnect – to place\, to purpose\, and to one another. Grounded in whenua and guided by connection\, Rotorua’s landscapes and geothermal springs remind us that renewal is both powerful and necessary. Coming together as Global Women members fills our cup – with learning\, challenge\, laughter\, and the energy that only collective leadership can bring. \nThis Hui is a moment to acknowledge progress and to be honest about what has not shifted – particularly for women and communities facing intersecting inequities. Across two days\, we will examine where power sits and how it must be redesigned; how capital\, talent\, health systems\, and institutions can work differently; and where leadership responsibility must now be held with greater courage and accountability. We will bring global insight into sharp local focus\, centering wāhine Māori leadership and reflecting the diversity of women’s experiences across Aotearoa. \nAbove all\, this Hui is designed to move us from insight to action. Through purposeful kōrero\, connection\, and reflection\, members will be challenged to leave with clearer priorities\, practical shifts to make within their spheres of influence\, and renewed confidence to lead meaningful change. Together\, we step forward – connected\, courageous\, and ready to act as changemakers. \nAt this Hui\, members can expect bold conversations\, diverse perspectives\, practical leadership insights\, and clear calls to action – grounded in place\, equity\, and collective responsibility. \nSee the full programme here: 2026 Members Hui Programme \n  \nSpeakers confirmed\nMore to come…\n \n  \nTicket Packages\nPackage A \n\n2 day/2 night\nThursday 21 May – Saturday 23 May\n\nPackage B \n\n1 day/1 night\nFriday 22 May – Saturday 23 May\n\n\n  \nDiscounted Accommodation Rates at the Rydges Rotorua – Hui 2026\nBook your 2026 accommodation early!

She recently executive-produced and held the role of  Poutiaki Reo and Tikanga for Tangata Pai\, the first primetime drama series to feature over 30% te reo Māori\, now streaming on Netflix and soon to be on PBS in the US. \nGrounded in her community\, she serves as a Trustee for her papa kāinga and regularly anchors major events\, including the global gathering Women Deliver\, held in Melbourne in April\, and the Te Matatini Māori Performing Arts Festival held in Taranaki. \n  \nRachel Antony\nRachel Antony is the CEO of Greenstone Pictures\, one of Aotearoa’s leading screen production companies.

SUMMARY:Getting clear on what matters: Women Into Leadership in 2026
DESCRIPTION:This event is exclusive to Champions for Change member organisation. \n2026 hasn’t shaped up the way we’d hoped. With economic turbulence\, restructuring\, AI\, and a long list of competing demands\, it’s easy for gender progress to slip down the priority list – not because it doesn’t matter\, but because there’s only so much bandwidth to go around. This is also\, though\, a good moment to get clear on what matters most and where to focus the resources we do have for maximum impact. \nJoin Dr Amanda Sterling – researcher\, consultant\, and one of NZ’s leading experts on women into leadership – for a practical\, research-backed session exploring what it takes to make real progress for the inclusion of women and where to focus your actions right now. \nDrawing on two years of New Zealand survey data (622 women in leadership roles)\, her PhD research\, and hundreds of conversations with workplace leaders struggling with good intentions – alongside an overwhelm of possible actions – Amanda will walk you through a framework for understanding where your workplace is at\, what the evidence says about where to focus your energy from there\, and what we all need to level up on if we want to see a real shift in opportunities for women in our lifetimes. \nWe’ll explore: \n\nWhy women’s experiences at work\, and women’s experiences into leadership are different – and why that distinction matters.\nThe three stages of the inclusion journey\, what they look like in practice\, and what they mean for where you focus.\nWhat the data actually tells us about what’s having the most positive impact on women’s careers into leadership\, including a few results that might surprise you.\nThe challenges that workplaces genuinely committed to gender equity in leadership need to confront for meaningful change.\nHow to identify the highest-impact actions for where your workplace is right now.\n\nThis session is about helping you cut through the noise and focus on what is actually going to make a difference\, as well as challenge you to think more critically about how we’re progressing with gender equity in New Zealand. \n
