Next Gen Graduation Celebration

20/09/2019
WOB congratulates our twenty-one Next Gen graduates who attended the final two days of our program at AON in Sydney this week. We had great presentations, robust discussion, metamorphic personal development and deep personal connections between the graduates, mentors, presenters and WOB staff.
 
Next Gen is a high-level program for senior women designed to increase their leadership capacity and confidence in both their professional career and with boards.

One aspect of the program requires participants to work in syndicates to interview leaders to develop a report and presentation on their chosen topic.  The last two days of the program culminated in a number of learning workshops, panel discussions, each syndicates delivering their reports and presentations and a great finale dinner.

Take a look at our amazing graduates, their mentors and chosen study topic.
