Find your voice in the age of AI
The rules of leadership are being rewritten — and women in People and Culture are being asked to navigate it in real time.
AI is reshaping roles, restructuring teams, and raising uncomfortable questions about what skills still matter. And yet, the conversation about who gets to lead through this — with clarity, courage, and conviction — is still catching up.
Many women already sense the shift. Fewer feel equipped to lead it.
This intimate roundtable is a space to explore what it means to future-proof your voice, your thinking, and your career — not by chasing tools, but by sharpening the human edge that no AI can replace.
Together, we'll explore:
How AI is quietly reshaping power dynamics at work — and what that means for women in leadership
Why critical thinking is the most underrated career skill right now
What it looks like to reinvent yourself with intention, not desperation
How to use your voice strategically as the landscape keeps shifting
What "job security" actually means when the rules keep changing
Expect honest conversation, not a presentation. This is a facilitated discussion designed for reflection, real dialogue, and the kind of thinking that only happens in a room where people feel safe enough to go there.
We're keeping numbers intentionally small to allow depth and genuine participation.

Vanessa Monsequeira I'm a tech executive and AI transformation consultant who believes the future belongs to leaders who think critically, adapt boldly, and stay deeply human. I've led People teams at Miro, Gorilla, PwC, Deloitte, and Philips — and I left the safety of in-house leadership to build something in the space where AI and human intelligence meet. I'm here because I think women in leadership need more than AI tools. They need the thinking skills to lead with them.
Ruth Penfold I'm a former Chief People Officer turned leadership coach, and I believe the future of leadership requires women to lead with boldness, self-trust, and embodied authority. In a time of shifting systems and rising complexity, I'm passionate about helping women find and use their true voice — not through performance, but through alignment and courage. Drawing on senior leadership roles across high-growth organisations, I now support leaders to navigate complexity with clarity, integrity, and impact.
