Emerging Leaders Membership Scholarship (SA)
Rise and shine with a Scholarship offering built for your career goals.
You already know the feeling. You look around a room, a leadership team, or down a shortlist - and something in you says, quietly but clearly: why not me?
BCD’s Emerging Leaders Membership is where that instinct gets the backing it deserves. It's a room full of women who think the way you do - ambitious, capable, and (perhaps) a little impatient with the pace of "wait your turn".
Ready to meet an incredible peer group who’ll tell you the truth, ask sharper questions, and push you further than you'd push yourself? It's accountability that keeps you moving. It's the skills and the language to lead like it's yours to lead.
You don't need permission, and you don't need to wait until you feel ready. You just need to back the woman who already asked why not me?, and let a room full of others back her too.
If that's you, nominate yourself for our Emerging Leaders Scholarship (SA Only).
We'll take it from there.
