Levelling the Playing Field in the AFL with Diana Taylor AM
On the latest episode of the Advancing Women in Sport podcast, I spoke with Diana Taylor, a trailblazer as the first female Vice President of the Geelong Football Club. Diana recounted her transition from a young lawyer to a prominent figure in sports administration. A proponent of the quota system, she highlighted the importance of creating distinct pathways for women's leadership positions. Diana emphasised the necessity of a robust support network and maintaining professional poise in the face of adversity. Our discussion also touched upon the responsibility of sports administrators to foster gender-inclusive environments and the usefulness of skills matrices in evaluating team dynamics. Diana's positive outlook is fueled by her experiences at AFLW games, reflecting the increasing enthusiasm and advocacy for women's sports.
