Gauteng Women in Insurance: Vibe & Venture – Golf Masterclass

  • April 8, 2025

This session featured Huntley Smith, Change Architect and former COO, who led a powerful and candid conversation titled C-Suite Unfiltered: 90 Minutes Inside the C-Suite. Smith unpacked the realities of executive leadership, offering attendees a rare glimpse into the pressures, decisions, and mindset required at the top.

Rather than focusing on polished success stories, Smith took attendees into the “war room”, sharing real-world lessons on navigating complexity, driving organisational change, and leading with clarity in high-stakes environments. His session challenged conventional perceptions of leadership and encouraged future leaders to think more strategically about their own growth journeys.

We were grateful to our main sponsor, iTOO Special Risks, co-sponsor Absa, and logistical sponsors FAnews, Glasfit, and Santam Specialist Solutions for their contributions to the success of the event.

The event included networking opportunities with industry experts and professional golfers and provided a unique opportunity for women in the insurance industry to learn a new skill, improve their game, make connections with other professionals and have fun on the golf course.

Order of events
The day began with a warm welcome from the GWII President, Kyndra Robertson, who also acknowledged key sponsors and introduced VIPs. Afterwards, the ladies were grouped with golf pros and some of GWII’s proficient golfers to assist the newcomers. A variety of fun golf activities followed, including chipping, putting, and driving challenges.

After freshening up, everyone moved to Hotshots for food and socialising, which was followed by the much-anticipated Hotshots competition and an exciting lucky draw. The evening concluded with relaxed networking among attendees.
