Kelli Jackson of Women's Adventure ACT
In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Kelli Jackson - Head of Women's Adventure ACT, avid unicycler, Macpac Ambassador and 2022 ACT Woman of the Year.
With an MBA and background in accounting, Kelli Jackson may not be who you expected to run a women's adventure group full-time. Kelli initially inherited this ad-hoc Meetup Group and then transformed it into a community of thousands of women in the Australian Capital Territory by running over 460 outdoor events, from canyoning to canoe polo and everything in between.
What might appear to be just a "sporting" group for women, the flow-on effects of introducing women to the outdoors and the related empowerment from developing new experiences and skills have been surprising and immeasurable. And it all started with establishing the organisation's values upfront.
There's a lot of exciting content in this episode, including tales of unicycling world records. Still, perhaps one of the most intriguing concepts discussed is utilising 'futuristic' tech for grass-roots organisations. Kelli discusses her fascination with thinking big for the future of organisational fundraising and the opportunities DAOs', or Distributed Autonomous Organisations could provide.
