With 25 years across seven countries, leadership teams, boardrooms, and her own journey of transition and reinvention, Emily speaks with the authority of someone who has lived it and the warmth of someone who genuinely gets it.
“Emily has a way of saying exactly what women need to hear.” Deb, Auckland


Many women today are carrying everything. Responsibility, ambition, change, pressure, and the quiet question of when it will finally be their turn.
Emily speaks into exactly that moment. With honesty, warmth, and the kind of clarity that makes a room go quiet.
Her sessions blend lived experience, strategic depth, and grounded leadership. Women leave feeling seen, clearer, and genuinely ready to move forward.

The Danger of Living Efficiently Why highly capable women build successful lives that no longer feel sustainable, and what it takes to realign before burnout, resentment or disconnection take hold.
The Hidden Cost of Carrying Everything The invisible emotional labour impacting women's leadership, wellbeing, ambition and capacity - and why relief is not weakness, it is wisdom.
You Just Get On With It The assumption of capability as a reason to need nothing. What happens when the most capable woman in the room is also the most unsupported, and what organisations and communities can do differently.
If Someone Can, Give Them More Why competence attracts load, and how women can reclaim their energy, time and focus without abandoning the people who rely on them.
Volume Can Impress. Calm Can Lead. A modern reframe of women's leadership. Moving away from performative, status-driven definitions toward values-led, grounded, sustainable impact.
The Ripple Why women in midlife are one of the most under-leveraged forces for change in the world right now... and what happens when they stop waiting for permission and start building.
25 years as a key member of leadership teams across seven countries.
Business transformation, P&L, people strategy, and board experience.
Global perspective spanning Asia, Australasia, and Southeast Asia.
Lived experience of transition, reinvention, and building in the middle of real life.
Warm, grounded delivery that makes a room feel genuinely seen.
Practical takeaways audiences can use immediately.


Emily Rogers is the founder of The Leap To Lead. She has spent 25 years as a key member of leadership teams across seven countries - Australia, Hong Kong, India, China, Taiwan, New Zealand, and now Bangkok. She has led business transformation, managed the people and financial realities of real organisations, served on boards, and built things that actually work.
She has also relocated her family many times, raised two daughters in the middle of it all, and built her business while supporting her husband through serious illness.
Emily understands the emotional realities of transition and the strategic realities of leadership simultaneously. She does not separate them. Because in real life, they never are.
Once people work with Emily, they find ways to keep working with her.
