The Australian and New Zealand Women’s Empowerment and Leadership Initiative (AUS/NZ WELI) is dedicated to assisting women in anaesthesia with gaining skills, knowledge, confidence, and opportunities to achieve their career goals. 

A key component of this mission is to pair/partner participating women (the protégés) with a volunteer leader in the anaesthesia community. These leaders have a history of mentoring and personal career success, and they work more closely to assist protégés in their specific area of interest. We call these leaders WELI “advisors”, and they use aspects of both advising and mentoring when working with their WELI protégés. 

Additionally, advisors and protégés will participate in skills workshops led by executive advisors and will be provided other outside resources on achieving success in academic medicine.

WELI is coming to SPANZA 2024 and is eager to offer the following Networking Breakfast as detailed below:
