about Auckland Executive Club
Empowering Women in Business & Leadership
The Auckland Executive Club (AEC) is a premier networking and professional development community designed exclusively for women in senior management, professional fields, business ownership, and specialist roles. Our mission is to create a dynamic and supportive space where women can connect, collaborate, and inspire one another to achieve their career and personal aspirations.
We celebrate the achievements of our members, share success stories, and host engaging, high-profile speakers who motivate and empower. By fostering meaningful relationships and championing women making a difference in business, AEC stands as a cornerstone for professional women in Auckland looking to grow their network, gain valuable insights, and advance their careers.
Objectives :
- Personal & Professional Growth: Providing a forum where members can develop leadership skills, gain industry knowledge, and enhance personal growth.
- Networking & Business Promotion: Creating opportunities to form valuable business relationships, share expertise, and promote businesses within a trusted community.
- Inspirational & Topical Speakers: Hosting engaging guest speakers who share industry insights, professional strategies, and personal success stories.
- Community & Charity Support: Giving back by supporting chosen charities and initiatives that align with our values. AEC is proud to offer Entertainment Memberships to support the Quality of Life Trust fundraising efforts.
Our Story :
Founded by visionary businesswomen who saw the need for a dedicated space beyond traditional service organisations, the Auckland Executive Club was formalised in 1987. Since then, we have cultivated a thriving membership, welcoming new professionals and entrepreneurs at every meeting.
To maintain diversity and balance within our community, we limit the number of members within each business sector. If you’re looking for a vibrant, engaging, and supportive network of professional women, we’d love to connect and explore how you can be part of AEC.
Our Monthly Meetings :
- When: Third Tuesday of every month at 6 PM
- Where: A relaxed and informal dining setting
- What to Expect:
- Engaging guest speakers sharing insights on business, leadership, and success
- Opportunities to connect, collaborate, and grow your network

If you’re considering joining, we encourage you to attend a meeting as a guest before applying. This firsthand experience will help you see if AEC aligns with your professional goals and aspirations. Our structured sessions typically conclude by 9–9:30 PM, but members are welcome to stay longer for continued networking and conversation. Don’t forget to bring plenty of business cards— connections happen here!
