#77 Elizabeth Broderick, AO - It takes courage to step up into these roles

Brave Feminine Leadership

One of the hallmarks of the leaders I spend time with, leaders who are driving real change, is incredible generosity. Liz Broderick stands out. Liz puts herself at considerable risk as a Special Rapporteur and Independent Expert of the United Nations Working Group on Discrimination against Women and Girls. Together we discuss that courage is a muscle, that shining a spotlight on problems is one of the steps to finding a solution and the truly fearful moments where Liz has asked herself if she is happy to continue. Liz almost needs no introduction for anyone in the Australian corporate landscape. She was Australia’s longest standing Sex Discrimination Commissioner (2007 - 2015) and has been instrumental in the development and implementation of a gender equality blueprint for Australia. She is the Founder and Convenor of the Champions of Change Coalition (formerly Male Champions of Change) a globally recognised, disruptive strategy for achieving gender equality. Liz is a Board member of the International Service for Human Rights and a member of the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership Advisory Council, Kings College London. Humble and passionate with a wonderful sense of compassion. Make time to deeply absorb her words.
