The Activate Leaders Programme blends learning, reflection, and collaboration across four sessions held over four months — in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, and our virtual classroom.
Our virtual option ensures accessibility for women based in regional areas, those who travel frequently, or who prefer an online learning environment.
Each cohort is limited to 30 participants, ensuring an intimate and supportive environment where women learn from experienced senior leaders — and each other.
We are now accepting scholarship applications for the Global Women Activate Leaders Programme 2025 and we are delighted to announce that we currently have partial scholarships available to emerging entrepreneurs, women who are underrepresented leaders to help drive diverse participation in the programme.
