Rebel Book Club Sydney x LEADING

Welcome to the RBC Sydney event, where we'll be diving into the theme of Leading, through Jacinda Ardern's "".

Jacinda Ardern grew up the daughter of a police officer in small-town New Zealand, but as the 40th Prime Minister of her country, she became a global icon for her empathetic leadership that put people first. She guided her country through unprecedented challenges, from the 2019 Christchurch mosque attacks to a global pandemic. She advanced visionary policies to address climate change and child poverty. And all while juggling first-time motherhood in the public eye. This is the inspiring story of how a Mormon girl plagued by self-doubt changed our assumptions of what a leader can be.

Why we chose it: “Wonderful. As clear-eyed and luminous a depiction of childhood and family life as it is a brilliant insight into the making of a politician, a mother and a head of state." - Bill Bailey

Inspired by our monthly non-fiction reads, our mix of part cocktail party, part creative classroom is a recipe that builds your reading habit while connecting with like minded people.

Try out the club with Eventbrite - new customers only. Ticket price includes access to the Sydney Rebel Book Club event.

Sruthi Ravi

Sruthi spent a lot of time trying to find the right book club before RBC came along. She loves watching cricket, curling up with a good book, and to travel the world.

Dreamer, bookworm and feminist, Sruthi loves to meet new people, and learn more about the world we live in.

Most impactful RBC moment: "The most impactful book have been the ones that have challenged me to look at how I live my life. These books empowered me to make changes to my sleep habits, and change my actions as a consumer, as a friend/partner and as a member of society."

Emma Noller

Emma is a neuro-spicy, chaotic good character who has been teaching for the past 8 years. A former London RBC member, she is so excited to be a part of bringing this amazing experience to Sydney. She can’t wait to reconnect with the amazing people and opportunities that RBC is known for.

She loves travel, connecting with people and thinks that learning is a life-long journey. Why not do it in the most creative ways you can!

Most impactful RBC moment: "Discussing Lost Connections with a psychologist who changed our point of view. She did this by disagreeing with what the author was saying about reliance on Medic*tion. It was a lens I hadn’t looked through reading the book; this actually started my journey on learning more about my ADHD, how my brain can work for me and finding the support networks I needed to be the most efficient and creative I could be."
