Even if you don’t hold a formal leadership position, every person has the power to build networks and enact positive change.

SAGE talked to four people with very different roles who have found ways to influence outcomes in the spaces where they operate.

Watch this recording of the panel to hear more about their experiences and tips on using your existing sphere of influence for social good.

Thank you to reconciliation advocate Loren Collyer, neuroscientist Dr Alison Wright, equity specialist Dr Kieryn McKay, Superstar of STEM Dr Camelia Walker and our facilitator, feminist scholar A/Prof Gail Crimmins.

This panel was held as part of the SAGE Symposium at the 20th Gender and Education Conference, June 2024, at Charles Sturt University on Birpai Country, Port Macquarie. SAGE was the Conference Foundation partner.
