t is my aspiration for the Women of Aotearoa to have the confidence to understand their value and their worth. Too many times I hear women say ‘I’m just a…’ and not feel their opinion and contributions have equal merit. I’m thrilled to see more younger women at the start of their careers having a higher level of self confidence and belief, and not accepting status quo and pushing for more.
It’s my aspiration that we reach a point where women are appointed into senior positions based on their value, and not to fill a quota or tick a gender diversity box.
