What would happen if we amplified the ideas of the quiet and considered, the careful questioners and reflective thinkers? What if we unlocked the potential of all who care and want to contribute based on what they know and what they do?

We’ve always assumed that only a confident, eager few have the power to truly influence others towards change. But this simply isn’t true.

We’re overdue for a broader, better definition of thought leadership – one that celebrates authenticity, welcomes different types of thinking, and allows you to influence without the ick.

Join us to hear from Christina about the launch of her new book, Better - A more authentic path for the reluctant thought leader. There will be a short panel discussion centred around this mission of ensuring that everyone who has great ideas and is doing great work can have the impact they want to in the world. Because we will all be better off with more creative, innovative, inclusive and beneficial ideas out there.

Our panellists include:

Debbie Schultz – founder of BlueSkyMinds and a self-professed reluctant thought leader,

Russell Pickering – speaker, trainer, comms expert and author of Step into the Spotlight,

Marisa Fong – entrepreneur, investor and mentor of women leaders,

Mark Hayes - head of growth marketing and thought leader,

Christina Wedgwood - founder of Intelligent Ink and author of Better.

The discussion will be facilitated by Intelligent Ink’s Verity Craft.

Delicious food and drinks will also be served by The Garden Shed in Mt Eden. Guests are more than welcome, but please register as spaces are limited.

Books will be available for sale on the day for $38, payable online through a QR code link.

Come and join us to celebrate and contribute. We’re excited to see you there.
