Golf Business Mentoring Programme

The Business School and Golf New Zealand have come together to develop a unique 4-week programme where businesswomen of tomorrow can receive golf coaching and advice from business mentors.

This programme is specifically for women. Women make up almost half of the Business School's student population but continue to be a minority in senior and executive positions, on boards and committees. This programme provides an opportunity for students to gain insights into the world of business, and inspire a love for golf.

Why golf? Being able to play golf is an advantage in the business world – making connections, getting time with decision makers, and networking. While playing, and in the networking session afterwards, you will be able to talk to mentors about their career journeys and get tips to help your future career.  

This programme will provide the opportunity to give golf a try in a supportive environment. At the end of the course Golf New Zealand will be delighted if participants go on to take part in She Loves Golf.

• You do not need to have golf experience
  
• The course runs for four Sunday afternoons in April/May
