Sharing her inspirational story of career success and how she has balanced family and career, Emma empowered local ladies with a number of practical motivational strategies.
As the CEO of Achmea, a leading farm insurance firm, Emma explained that much of her motivation was thanks to her grandmother, a female pioneer of farming in New Zealand after her role as a 'Land Girl' - one of 6,000 women who worked in agriculture during the war years to keep the economy going whilst the men were at war.
