A few words from previous Award Winners...
"We are extremely proud of our achievement in
winning the prestigious award of Gender Diverse Organisation of the Year 2019.
We have worked hard to ensure that we are a positive example of a law firm
committed to gender equality and diversity. We have developed a culture which
enables women to succeed, removing obstacles, rather than creating them. It is
fantastic to be recognised for this."
Anna Fox, Managing Partner, Saunders Robinson Brown Law
"Winning the Emerging Leader at the Women in Governance NZ awards was a career defining moment in my governance journey. The acknowledgement gave me a newfound confidence to pursue Boards I thought were out of my league and empowered me to stretch beyond my comfort zone. It’s an honour and privilege to stand beside other amazing women and be inspired by the many stories of strength, courage, hard work and determination."
