As the world celebrates International Women’s Day with the theme Accelerate Action, March Forward, local leadership development specialist Suzy Miller has been recognised on the global stage as a finalist in the 2025 Women Changing the World Awards.
Central Coast based Miller has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Rural and Regional Areas Impact Award category for her outstanding contributions to leadership, advocacy, and career development for women in regional Australia.
Miller is a leadership development specialist working with diverse leaders and organisations worldwide and well equipped to understand the complex challenges leaders face with more than a decade’s experience as a senior executive at NAB, leading teams of up to 250 people.
Since 2011, Miller and her team have supported professionals to become inspiring, relevant, and relatable leaders.
The Women Changing the World Awards honour women who are driving meaningful change in areas such as sustainability, leadership, education, innovation, and social impact.
Miller’s work over the past 14 years has been dedicated to empowering leaders, women and youth in regional communities, addressing barriers to leadership and fostering high-performance workplace cultures.
“I’m incredibly proud of the impact our programs have had in supporting women’s career progression, self-confidence, and leadership development,” Miller said.
“Our Women’s Leadership Development Program alone has helped over 286 regional women, including Aboriginal women, culturally diverse women, and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, to step into leadership roles and create lasting change in their communities.”
Her passion for this work was sparked by a moment with her then 10-year-old daughter, who after learning about the gender pay gap, declared it was not fair and her mother needed to fix it.
Inspired by the challenge, Miller developed an award-winning leadership program that now supports women across various industries, including mining and other non-traditional sectors, while also engaging men as champions for change.
Applications for Miller’s Women’s Leadership Development Program are open now and close in April.
She is also running a series of BoostHER half-day workshops: one on April 2 at Gosford RSL Club and another on April 9 at East Maitland Bowling Club.
Tickets are available on the website.
The winners of the 2025 Women Changing the World Awards will be announced at the Women Changing the World Global Summit and Awards in London on April 3.
