Women in Leadership Insights to Action

We often hear about the barriers holding women back from leadership—but what’s actually working to move them forward?

A powerful new report from Global Women member Dr Amanda Sterling flips the narrative, offering evidence-based insights into what makes the biggest impact on women’s leadership journeys in Aotearoa.

💥 The top four drivers of women’s success:

  • Supportive managers
  • Supportive partners
  • Leadership development programmes
  • Flexible work arrangements
The report also reveals where organisations might be over-investing in well-intentioned – but lower impact -initiatives, and calls for greater accountability, inclusive leadership training for men, and shifting caregiving norms.

If you’re serious about advancing gender equity in leadership, this is essential reading.
