As a woman in leadership across the fields of education and non-profit for more than 30 years, Bron Williams has taught a multi-grade classroom, led a school, run a Salvation Army church and welfare center, and worked with asylum seekers on Nauru. It was working with asylum seekers and alongside Pacific Islanders that alerted Bron to her own latent bias of racism and she understood her white privilege for the first time. In her personal life, Bron has shattered family and cultural expectations around what a woman should do, challenged societal norms about what aging looks like, and reformed and reshaped her career not once but twice. She knows it takes courage to let go of long-held beliefs that hold us back, to lead from behind when leadership is not recognized, and to set up and run businesses in fresh ways. Bron is a trained educator, holds an honors degree in Theology, and is currently undertaking PhD research exploring the intersection of bias and shame.
