Capgemini and World Rugby accelerate search for female leaders of the future

  • The search for 25 inspiring female leaders for the 2024/25 Capgemini Women in Rugby Leadership Programme is now on
  • The programme is creating a growing global network of female leaders and role models across the sport
  • Scholars will have access to personalised coaching and training sessions via Capgemini’s internal University to help their professional development
  • Seventy-three scholars have completed the programme since 2018

This week, World Rugby will begin the search to find 25 inspiring female leaders through the Capgemini Women in Rugby Leadership Programme which identifies and develops the next generation of female leaders. The programme enables them to fulfil their potential and drives gender equity across the game with the overall aim of increasing the number of women in key leadership positions within rugby.

Each year, 12 scholars are granted access to the best learning programmes from the Capgemini University with successful applicants matched with a mentor and eligible to apply for an additional discretionary grant of up to £5,000 to help aid their development. New for 2024, and to maximise the opportunities for trailblazers of the future in the countdown to Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025, World Rugby will be seeking 25 leaders for 2025 which will enable the scholars to be supported over a longer period of time.
