Listen "The NZ student who is helping create more leaders"
Episode Synopsis
You know you've done well with a school project when one of the country's major local sports clubs takes notice. Dhriti Girish was 13 years old when she came up with the idea for her 'Young Leaders' initiative. It's designed to support girls in cricket, encouraging them in the sport and helping develop their leadership potential. What began as a year-10 student project was later adopted as a fully-fledged programme by Cricket Wellington, and then it won the prize for Best Female Engagement Strategy at the ANZ National New Zealand Cricket Awards. Dhriti is now in her second year of university and the 'Young Leaders' programme is still going strong. She chats to Jesse.
