Angela Meyer

Bestselling author · Behaviour change specialist · TEDx speaker · Award-winning strategist
WHO I WORK WITH
Financial services, government, councils, NGOs, infrastructure, trades, water and other technical sectors.
I work with organisations tackling complex problems and who are trying to get people to care about them.
You’re technical experts, I bring the outside perspective.
HOW I WORK
I bring together research, strategy, storytelling, humour and lived experience to help people think differently AND do something about it.
Sometimes that means a keynote.
Sometimes that means a strategy lab.
Sometimes that’s sending me the problem and getting me to solve it.
SPEAKING
Keynotes and talks that make complex issues memorable, relevant and actionable.
STRATEGY
Facilitated sessions that turn hard problems into sharper questions, better ideas and things you can test.
MONEY AT WORK
Research-led conversations about financial wellbeing, money stress and how it impacts the workplace.
FINANCIAL SERVICES
Research, speaking and strategic thinking about women, wealth and the changing customer.
I’ve developed workforce strategies that more than increased women’s participation in vocational trades — from 3.2% -5.7% in five years — designed strategies that have influenced policy, shifted systems and moved organisations to act, and led award-winning go-to-market campaigns that delivered measurable commercial results.

Principal Advisor Women, BCITO“Thank you so much for such a great session. You are born to be on stage."
— Prue Tyler - CEO Shift "I've had the pleasure of hearing Angela speak a number of times.. She is an exceptionally engaging speaker: articulate, warm, intelligent and completely at ease with her audience.
Angela has a remarkable ability to make conversations about women and money feel accessible, relatable and genuinely interesting, blending deep knowledge with humour, energy and flair. Most importantly, people connect with Angela. She draws her audience in, makes them think, and leaves them feeling they’ve been part of a genuinely valuable and enjoyable conversation.
— Charlotte Whale “As a producer of Shortchanged: The Pay Equity Investigation Podcast, I worked closely with Angela, who was a co-writer and the show's lead voice.
Angela has incredible range as a speaker. In the studio she moved between straight narration, drama scenes and live interviews with politicians and public figures, and she did it without ever losing sight of the audience. She reads a room, or a mic, fast enough to adjust her tone on the spot.
Shortchanged dealt with a contentious piece of law reform. It could easily have been a dry or impenetrable story, but Angela and the team recognised early that humour was the way to bring an audience in. That instinct is a big part of why the series connected, and Angela's comic timing is what made it work on the page and in the booth.
She's creative, quick, warm with guests and completely unflappable under pressure. If you need someone to MC an event or front a presentation on a subject that matters, get Ange on the case."
— Teresa Cowie, CE Connect Content NZ"Working with Ange over the past few years has been an absolute pleasure. She’s one of the most diligent and creative people I’ve had the joy of collaborating with, always bringing thoughtful ideas to the table and following through with care, clarity, and heart.
What truly sets Ange apart is her inclusive and collaborative spirit. She has a way of making everyone feel valued and heard, and her people-first approach is reflected in everything she touches. Ange brings warmth, integrity, and genuine passion.
