“This course has given me the tools I need to be become a better leader. The modules and playsheets have allowed me to review my current situation which came at a good time as the organization I was working for went through changes, which meant that I had to decided what to do next. The conversations that were shared in the Coaching calls were helpful too. I will continue to review these modules as I progress in my career. I am grateful for the opportunity to attend and complete this course.”

“This really was a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance for me. Each module will peel away another layer of who you think you are, eventually revealing who you really are. Your strengths, passions, power and purpose without the judgement and criticism. You will discover how to take better care of yourself because you will now truly understand yourself. This course has taught me what I need to thrive. I have gone from feeling like an imposter to knowing the value I bring to my workplace - I am worthy."
Bianca Vogt
Asset Tracking Product Manager, Telstra

Meadhbh Ni Laoi
Website Designer, PageUp
“I can't rate this program highly enough! You can tell how much work has gone into beautifully crafting content and ensuring modules flow seamlessly to provide value at the most poignant time for participants.
The community element of this program has been vital for me- it's been so powerful to be able to share my experiences and learn from other women around theirs.
The positive influence it's had on me, not just in work but also in my personal life is amazing. I have found my authentic self again via this program- people have noticed the positive change and commented how I "come to life" when I talk about and share insights from Women Rising.
I've adopted so many elements from this program to empower not just myself, but my older daughters, female friends, my partner and to help other women where I work to rise up and be their authentic selves! It's given me the knowledge, tools, statistics and confidence to share insights in my organisation with the aim of building allies who'll help drive positive change for women in our workplace. Before this program, this is certainly something I would not have had the confidence or insights to do!"
Christina Halliday

“My gratitude to Megan for curating such a practical, structured, comprehensive and self motivating program based on real life challenges. This program has brought in a different perspective in my life to push myself to strengthen my strengths.
The examples used in the program like ted talks, motivation speakers, coaching calls and playsheet concept is amazing and very fruitful.
I will recommend everyone to enroll yourself to this and enhance and strengthen your leadership skills.
Thank you once again Megan and looking forward to connect with you again.”
Anjali Jain
Head CRM, BMW Group India Ltd.
“The most awesome thing about the Women Rising program is that it promotes authenticity as being at the heart of everything that we do, provides tools and guidelines to effectively build authentic connections and to develop an authentic leadership style. I wish that Women Rising was available to me 30 years ago, when I first embarked on my career in IT. I would have spent far less time questioning my ability and confidence, and placed more focus on what's important to me and my professional and personal evolution. Completing the program at this advanced stage of my career has renewed my enthusiasm for picking up new skills and forging a new professional path for myself - one that is more aligned with my personal definition of success."
Eva Lockwood
E2E IT Solution Designer, Telstra
“This programme motivates and encourages one to want to grow and move out of their comfort zone. It urges one to want to discover more about themselves whilst equipping women how to go about it."
Agfa Kuda Dhliwayo

“Women Rising is a great program for women to understand themselves and their strengths, motivations, goals, and aspirations better. It has great tools, mentors and community to help, support, and advise with sticky situations. It's truly a platform to help women rise together, cherish our differences in our leadership styles and make a true difference in the business world."

Catherine Slater
Project Manager, C3 Post Trade
“The program has helped me gain clarity on what is important and what is not. I can now stop being busy and be purposeful day to day.”
Hanna Dean
Support Solution Specialist, Microsoft
“After 30 years in work life I have been ingrained with a certain way of thinking and resigned that I have to follow a certain trajectory (male-focused). This program has given me freedom to consider my well-being rather than a preset route and career trajectory. Focus on my well-being and protect it; being authentic (my strengths honed over the years are genuine and are learned experiences that I can tap into - back myself). I can be confident and tame my inner critic. I really wish I had been given this opportunity 20 years ago..”
Julia Leong
Program Manager, Interactive
“I found the program on a whole to be beneficial. It made me think on the flip side and from a different point of view. Stress was one of those and how to use it your advantage. Another one was the biases. Having a vision and purpose of what in want to achieve and journey to get there is what all program encompasses. Got to meet some very wonderful and strong women as well. Thank you!"
Shobna Lata
ICT Officer - Application and Support, Brisbane Catholic Education
“The Women Rising program has given me insight, inspiration, motivation and the necessary learnings and tools to confidently go forward in both my personal and professional life. The program is delivered and managed in such a way participants have the ability to be involved at a comfortable level and pace. The program offers a true feeling of network support and connection during and beyond the program. I thoroughly enjoyed the program and look forward to being part of the Alumni."
Leanne Reynolds
Executive Assistant to CEO/MD, Data#3
“Women Rising can be seen as all about all women finding a place in the workplace, but the essence I found was how I could find my true self and bring that into the workplace in an authentic way whilst creating a positive environment for others and being a strong leader."

“Thank you for putting this program together. I learnt I am far stronger than I think and I can achieve anything."
Deepshikha Rana
Enterprise Azure Specialist, Microsoft
“My biggest takeaway was to be able to pause and reflect on myself, be it professionally or personally, working on my vision and goals and how to successfully there.
Working on my personal brand - through getting feedback from my peers and Management - and how to improve it was definitely a highlight and a milestone for me.
I am now more confident and realised I have more grit than I thought. I prioritise myself more, be it professionally or personally and focus on my well-being.
I am planning on reflecting regularly on myself and where i stand compare to my vision and goals, continue the Mentor/Mentee journey as it allows an external point of view. I will focus on prioritising myself and my well-being while I continue to develop my network and share with other women internally and externally.”
JESSICA CARRET
Area Sales Manager, BMW Group Asia

Chloe Royston
Team Leader - Customer Support Representative, Data#3 Limited
“I am truly grateful to be part of the Women Rising program at this time in my leadership journey.

Rheena Evasco
Bid and Proposal Management Leader, DXC Technology
“This program has re-inspired and reinvigorated me regarding my own future, goals and how important my wellbeing is to me achieving all I want to for myself and my team. Great content that was sometimes new to me and other content that were just great reminders of things I have let go of over time. Strongly encourage all to do this and it is great we get to go back over in our own time the content to keep being the best we can be.”
Nicole Hobbs

I would absolutely recommend this program to anyone, regardless of where they are in their career journey!!”
TAHANI ABU-SHAMALA
Supervisor, Business Applications, RSM US LLP
“Prior to embarking on this Program, I had participated in a number of tests regarding my strengths and undertaken internal leadership/development programs. This Program highlighted and reinforced what I have come to learn about myself personally and as a leader, and has introduced me to the tools that will assist me in developing further as a person and leader/role model. Setting boundaries for my own wellbeing, changing my approach to fit the audience and environment while ensuring not to loose my authenticity and who I am and what I bring to the table. I was not able to dial into many of the coaching calls but listened to these post the sessions. There is comfort in knowing that I am not alone in walking this challenging path of female leadership. My aim is to empower every women I can to build confidence and never question our worthiness.”
Angelique Abbott-Walton
Principal Technology Risk and Compliance Advisor/Manager, AGL
“Absolutely loved the program and the diversity of topics covered. It taught me the importance of needing to invest my time to learn and grow. The modules on Intentional well-being and leading change have to be the most powerful learnings that I will take away. They resonate so well with my current career needs as well as how to be better person at work and at home. I am keen to practice what I have learnt and influence the wider community at work and home the best way I can."
Kamini Wijekulasuriya
BOS Furnace Operations Manager, BlueScope
“I have learnt so much about myself, my life and my career through doing this program and found that it has really boosted my confidence to be able to take action and find joy in what I do. The best part is I can constantly come back and review and adjust as needed as I keep moving through different stages. Meeting so many other amazing women and having access to this great community is probably the best part of all."
Kirsty Adam
Sales Coordinator, InterSystems
"This course had been amazing for me. The relevance of modules to our day to day challenges were amazing. It has helped me to look at failure and stress from a new (and surprisingly very positive) point of view.
The coaching calls are great, not only we can consult with Megan about anything but also we get to hear experience/insights of many other inspiring women.
The program has given a great insight about my strengths and things I can work on (in a very encouraging fashion). Thanks so much Megan for bringing forward this fantastic course. I miss our coaching calls."
Nidhi Singh
Product Owner, Telstra
“This program has allowed me to reflect on where I've come from (my experiences both good and bad) & where I want to be. I have had so many 'aha!' moments along the way. I've gained confidence in my abilities and have been challenged to think about things differently. Such a helpful course, our host Megan, the community, and access to such great resources have been utterly fantastic. I will be revisiting this program in the future, thank you!"
Melita Lee
Functional Consultant, Atturra
“We think other people know us better, but after this program I strongly realise that we are the best person to know our true selves, and we must be patient with our pace to grow."
Prableen Kaur
Program Manager, Adobe
“I have truly understood my vision and purpose and it is a great way to start your journey in the program. The playsheets are amazing with the way the questions are framed that they really make you think deep about yourself and everyone around you. Inculcating the radical confidence in myself is something that I am still learning to do and hope to get better at it. The impact I make on others in my team and toward my organisation is something that I had never realized before. I hope to be able to absorb all the learning from the program and practice in my life daily."
Arti Raj
Senior Data Insights Analyst, Telstra
“This program is great in the way it is structured to develop yourself along with bringing women together from all over the world together that surprisingly share similar stories. I highly recommend it for all women, regardless of which point in their career they are at."
Ivanka Miller
Customer Delivery Manager, Optus
“I have made changes! At the start of the program I was feeling unappreciated in my role, overworked and on the verge of burnout. Since I have negotiated a 4 day working week and acknowledgement of my 'lead' title. I am shameless about my personal brand, am sitting here beside my Grit Map and have FINALLY developed a tangible life purpose with associated mid level and low level goals. I am more aware of gender bias, more dedicated to making change. Intentional wellbeing is now possible because of all these things prior. Sitting here today I feel so HAPPY, so BLESSED and so GRATEFUL."
Tashia Niewand
Talent Engagement Leader, Data#3

“This program has increased my understanding and awareness of both myself and of workplace dynamics. It has helped me face into the future with courage, confidence and a toolkit of powerful frameworks to draw on.”
Jacqueline Spiesser
Product Owner, Telstra
“I am thrilled to share that the Women Rising program has been a truly transformative experience for me. Despite having completed numerous leadership courses in the past, I was surprised to find that this program exceeded my expectations in terms of the valuable insights and personal growth it provided.
I have gained new perspectives and insights that have fundamentally changed the way I perceive myself and my leadership style. The program has given me the tools to become a more effective leader, both in my personal and professional life.”
General Manager - Digital Engineering, Datacom
“The Women Rising Program was fantastic and has had a profound impact on me. Every topic resonated with me, and was all tied together really nicely - over the journey, I've learnt a lot about myself, am clearer on my purpose and the impact I want to have, and have some great, practical tips and tools to support me in many aspects of my personal and professional life. I look forward to continuing to do this important work, and supporting other women around me to do the same. Thank you Megan, and your team, for your beautiful coaching and program!"
Kate O'Dwyer
Finance Transformation Program Manager, BlueScope
“It was fantastic to make time and think about things you don't usually spend time on, and it's the hard questions, so trusting your stream of consciousness to find out what lies beneath in terms of your vision and purpose - spit balling and writing whatever comes up, trusting - it's challenging!"
Tracey Roberts
Senior HR Advisor, Holmes ANZ LP
“Creating boundaries - life design vs work/life balance. Taking time out for myself and not feeling guilty for completing professional development. This has allowed me to step outside my comfort zone - taking on a further project role that has turned into a different position. Opened up so many more opportunities.”
Belinda Little
Manager Compliance and Assurance, TAFE NSW
“At the beginning of the training, you will have a cloudy space about your vision that is not clear, and as you progress, you will be enlightened about your purpose and be able to build your confidence to thrive, build a brand, and make an impact.”
Naneth Villapando
Sales Operations Advisor, DXC Technology
“Grit and Grace was one of the most powerful module of this course. It took me a while to understand and realized my purpose. and it was not an easy exercise. Once I did it, I start connecting my purpose in everyday decisions. One example from my work life. My purpose at work is to help people around me thrive, grow and progress. At one point, I realized there is underperforming team member in my team and I was at the point to fire him because multiple times I did not see any progress with him. but then I thought of my purpose and realized that I can and should help him to thrive. it is easy to fire a person and it is so difficult to grow, nourish and unleash the potential. So I am doing my best to help him to thrive. and I'm positive I won't regret it. The same I apply to my family and kids, especially when I am impatient or someone crossed my boundaries. I stop myself, go and get a glass of water and then connect to my purpose at home which is : improve quality of life for people around me. and it magically changed everything because I am making life more comfortable and more enjoyable, not difficult for my loved ones. THANK YOU.”
Veronika Koltsuk
Head of Product Marketing Wellbeing, Electrolux
“I wasn't sure what to expect from this program but it has been an eye-opening experience. The ability to connect with women around the world and understand that we all feel the same has been a profound experience. I would recommend this program to anyone who is willing to put in the work as the outcome is worth it.”
Brooke Scott
Project Controller, ElectraNet
“I thoroughly enjoyed this program and was a little sad to see the formal program come to an end. I loved how this program takes a different perspective to look at who we are and what we want to achieve from our lives, both personally and professionally. It's quite thought provoking and confronting to think about ourselves first.
I would highly recommend this to everyone. And I would like to see more men join the allies program so that we start making positive changes.”
Claire Taylor
Senior Business Analyst, BlueScope
“Life can be challenging time to time and it's made by different phases and, let's face it, we all have our limits. I always felt like I was unstructured in the way I was looking at my career. I feel so much stronger now that I have the tools to draw a clearer path in front of me. But the most important thing the course has thought me is to value my strengths, be confident and to have grace and let go.”
Martina Saldi
Go To Market Manager - Cyber Security, Data Security and Privacy ANZ, Microsoft
“The strengths based approach of the Women Rising program is so powerful - to identify and go after the things that you want more of! Turn your thoughts in to actions.
The well rounded structure to build purpose in to your life, not just your career is life changing, and being able to learn and share with a cohort of women from all different parts of the world is tremendous.
Learn techniques about how to take control of your own destiny, own it and put it in to action.”
Anne Major
Principal - Process Design, Water Corporation

I am grateful for the experience and would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to build their inner strengths and achieve their goals.”

“This course provides a good coverage of leadership and career concepts and skills. It would be very valuable to women wanting to move into more senior roles, or starting their career.”
Vivienne Collins
Lead Consultant – Data Platforms & Advanced Analytics, Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand
“If you are looking for a bunch of supportive, relatable, like minded women who are in the same position as you in your life or career, this is the place for you. Before completing the Women Rising program, I was feeling less than confident in my own ability to do what I had been doing for years, all it took was the support and well thought out modules in this program and here I am, living proof that it works.”
Taylor Newnham
Head of Telco Technology, AGL
“This program has given me awareness, knowledge and practical tools to develop myself, my career and my life. Truly life changing.”

I know I will revisit the modules as my life and work role evolves, as life is a continual learning process and this program is an ideal guide. I feel I am equipped with tools to help when I'm lacking confidence, or feeling lost, and the encouragement to push myself to take on new challenges with confidence.”
Jessica Gambrill
Project Co-ordinator, Mangano IT
“This program not only helps build your confidence to deal with those challenges we experience both professionally and personally; but help you grow and develop as a person. You have the opportunity to connect and network with so many amazing women who experience the same things you do and have fun along the way.”
Prue Agar
Project Management Consultant, Atturra
“The program had so many topics that really opened up my mind to overcome my own biases. The key lessons for me were
- Try to make use of the energy that stress gives you, instead of wasting that energy trying to manage your stress
- Assume that you’re capable and have faith that with effort you can succeed
- Lean into my strengths, our strengths when used in the right way can super charge our confidence and success.
- Don’t be afraid to fail forward. Remind yourself that attaining mastery of a new skill often requires the risk of failure – it’s what you learn that counts
- It’s not all about having the grit, we also need the grace to realise when we have set the wrong goal and to let that go and move on to a new purposeful path that feels more aligned to us."
Rochelle Higgins
Commercial Executive, Microsoft
“I feel that this Program came at the right time especially with all the changes that were happening at work, it has allowed me to assess my current situation and think about what my next steps are.”

Karen Thomas

It's a great community environment where you finally feel like you're not alone in lacking confidence or imposter syndrome, the course helps overcome this fear.”
Claire Cook
Senior Finance Analyst, BlueScope
“This program found me at a perfect time. I was coming back from maternity leave, after being onboarded and working remotely. Confidence and support felt low.

LJ Byrne

“Content is great and really geared towards self-paced learning, and the course also breaks down the daunting aspects that impact working women and offers suggestions in small, actionable steps which are achievable to implement. Besides the interesting concepts covered, the best aspect is that it reminds you that you are not the only one coming up against difficulties in the workplace, there are hundreds of other women in the same boat and having the chance to hear some of their stories was very illuminating and empowering.”
Madeline Blatch
Corporate Account Manager, Crayon
