Use Your Voice is a breakfast event series for women in business in Christchurch, New Zealand

Created by Jen Heuett (The Small Wins Company), Use Your Voice is built around a simple premise: women need to use their voice more.

At Use Your Voice events, women come together to practise the skills that matter most in business: networking, pitching, asking for help, and articulating their value in a room full of people.

It doesn't matter if you are employed, own your own business, or are a CEO or Managing Director. This event is for woman at every stage of their work journey.

Agenda:

Event opens with a local charity spotlight -Madi Keay, Kidney Health NZ/Free Legal Clinics
Followed by a 'fireside chat' session and Q&A with Lucy Pink, Co-Founder, Contented AI
We'll choose 8-10 women to deliver two 60-second pitches (who they are and what they need help with) Make sure you tick 'yes' to pitching yourself at checkout!
The morning closes with structured speed networking, so everyone leaves having made real connections with at least 4 other women.

This event is for any woman (or those who identify as one) who wants to build their leadership skills, connect with others, and gain visibility in their career or business.

Jen has facilitated the same structured events in the past, with 60+ women attending. They're fun, energising and inspiring.

Tickets are $40 + GST per person (+ booking fee)

Breakfast catering, barista-made coffee & tea are provided by Crisp & Vale.
(You will be asked about your dietary requirements at checkout)

You'll leave this event feeling confident in using your voice and talking about what you do, with new opportunities and more connections in our community.

🎁 You'll also get access to the Use Your Voice directory to add your own profile to connect before and after events!
