Join us at the Executive Communities Women’s Dinner 2026, where women leaders from CFO South Africa, CHRO South Africa, and CIO South Africa come together for an evening of meaningful conversation, connection, and empowered leadership.
Under the theme, The Power of Presence, this year’s gathering will explore how women executives can lead with confidence, influence outcomes that matter, and create impact in times of change. Through powerful conversations and shared experiences, we will unpack what it means to show up with clarity, resilience, authenticity, and intention in today’s evolving executive landscape.
Headlining the evening as keynote speaker is Nonkululeko Gobodo,the first Black woman in South Africa to qualify as a Chartered Accountant. A pioneering business leader, entrepreneur, author, and Chancellor of Walter Sisulu University. She is widely recognised for breaking barriers in corporate South Africa and championing inclusive leadership, transformation, and ethical governance. Her journey and insights promise to set a powerful tone for the evening’s conversations.
Back by popular demand following its successful launch last year, the highly anticipated Ask A Man session returns to the programme. This candid, no-filter Q&A session gives attendees the opportunity to ask senior male executives from Finance, HR, and IT the tough questions around leadership, gender dynamics, executive presence, and navigating corporate spaces.
We look forward to hosting you for what promises to be an inspiring and thought-provoking evening.
