Impactful Leadership:
What do horses, mules and the All Blacks have in common? Hear a true expert break-down what really works when it comes to impactful leadership.
Welcome to the final conversation in our Women in Business series: four events that bring you important conversations led by Women in Business and heard by everyone. In partnership with Forsyth Barr, this bar-setting series is bringing hard-hitting topics into the conversational spotlight.
What good leadership looks like has changed, but many of the methods we rely on to deliver it haven’t. This conversation will showcase what horses can teach us about impactful leadership in modern workplaces, and how anyone can turn those lessons into action that delivers.
Why be part of this conversation?
In this thought-provoking session, BBC journalist-turned-leadership coach Janine Sudbury will share how she discovered what really works in leadership development, and why traditional approaches often fall short.
You’ll take away insights including:
- The three secrets of the horse whisperer that unlock authentic, presence-based leadership
- How to overcome Imposter Syndrome and People Pleasing to lead with clarity and confidence
- Why horses give the most honest feedback—and how that feedback creates lasting breakthroughs
