People ask our founding team questions like “What does getting older have to do with leadership? What does aging have to do with the future of work?”
Rosie’s Roadshow is more than an initiative—it’s a bold movement reshaping how leaders, businesses, and communities address aging, caregiving, and workplace wellbeing. At the forefront of this revolution are two trailblazing Co-CEOs, Amy and Zoe, whose visionary leadership is inspiring leaders to do more than adapt—it’s challenging them to act.
This isn’t just about keeping pace with change; it’s about leading the charge.
1. Purpose-Driven Leadership with a Bold Agenda
The Rosie’s Roadshow Co CEOs aren’t just leaders with purpose—they’re leaders who live it. At the core of Rosie’s Roadshow is a commitment to tackling the societal shifts that most avoid: aging populations, evolving workplace dynamics, and caregiving responsibilities. But this isn’t about raising awareness. It’s about creating change.
- Amy’s Why: For Amy, this mission is deeply personal. She knows what it feels like to be forgotten during life’s most challenging moments and then the strength and joy she’s felt through trials when she’s remembered. She’s built Rosie’s Roadshow as a platform for leaders to foster those moments of care, innovation, and impact within their teams and communities. This isn’t business as usual; it’s about creating a lasting legacy.
- Zoe’s Expertise: As a serial entrepreneur, author and visionary strategist, Zoe brings storytelling to the forefront of leadership. She ensures Rosie’s Roadshow’s message resonates with the leaders who need to hear it most, not just sparking interest but igniting action.
Together, Amy and Zoe are clear: The time to lead is now.
2. Collaboration That Demands Action
Collaboration is at the heart of Rosie’s Roadshow, but our team doesn’t settle for passive participation. They demand active engagement, driving leaders to step out of their comfort zones and into roles of impact. How is this done?
- Event Host Model: This innovative approach pairs small businesses and nonprofits (the event host) with Rosie’s Roadshow to amplify voices that are often overlooked. Sponsorships do more than write checks —they are truly integrated into Rosie’s solution to create partnerships that shape the future. Leaders who engage with Rosie’s Roadshow are invited to co-create solutions that matter.
Amy and Zoe want to challenge leaders: Are you ready to co-create the future, or will you watch from the bleachers?
3. Empathy Is the Edge
In a world where leadership often prioritizes profit over people, Amy and Zoe are flipping the script. “Empathy”, says Amy, “isn’t a weakness—it’s the ultimate leadership strength.” What topics surround recognizing our shared humanity, ultimately bringing us closer together?
- Grief in the Workplace: By bringing grief into workplace conversations, Amy and Zoe challenge leaders to see it not as a taboo but as an opportunity for transformation. Their message is simple: Ignoring grief hurts people—and businesses.
- Empowering Caregivers: Through programs like Leadership Labs and flagship events, they’re equipping leaders with tools to better support caregivers and create workplaces that evolve alongside societal realities.
- Supporting People Through Transitions: This goes beyond maternity leave, and looks at transitions to part-time, fractional, transitional and consultative roles that allow them to be many things at once, at any age.
Empathy isn’t just kind—it’s strategic, necessary, and game-changing, and can create real financial returns in a business.
4. Inclusivity is the Imperative
Inclusivity isn’t a checkbox; it’s a leadership imperative. Amy and Zoe are proving that inclusive leadership isn’t just about doing the right thing—it’s about building stronger, more innovative organizations while recognizing that none of us can be perfect or see things without bias.
- Idea Inclusivity: Rosie’s Roadshow celebrates diverse perspectives, ensuring that every voice—regardless of age, role, or background—is valued. Their events challenge leaders to make inclusivity more than a buzzword by weaving it into the fabric of decision-making.
The question is sharp: Are you creating a culture where every generation thrives, or are you avoiding grappling with the most important challenges in your business?
5. Building Leaders Who Bother
At Rosie’s, we don’t just talk about change—they live it. As Zoe says,”our leadership mantra is guided by a core belief that leaders who bother make real change. This is also an inherent call to action for those willing to tackle the uncomfortable and reimagine the status quo.”
- Courage in Action: From introducing grief awareness in the workplace to reframing aging as a strength, Amy and Zoe aren’t afraid to challenge norms and inspire others to do the same.
- Content That Provokes: Their presence on platforms like LinkedIn goes beyond engagement—they’re sparking bold conversations about ageism, caregiving, and workplace transitions, inviting leaders to step into the light and lead with courage.
If you’re not ready to challenge the norms, we want to know ask: What’s holding you back?
6. Turning Bold Vision into Practical Results
One of our core values is that visionary ideas need practical execution. The 2025 roadmap is a masterclass in balancing ambition with actionable results.
- Leadership Labs & Flagship Events: With 12 Leadership Labs and 2 large-scale Flagship Events planned, they’ve created platforms designed to inspire and equip leaders with the tools to drive tangible change.
- Sponsorship Innovation: Their tiered sponsorship models don’t just align with corporate goals—they create pathways for meaningful engagement that drives impact.
- Custom Workshops and Events curated for your organizations unique needs.
Rosie’s Roadshow is where big ideas meet real-world execution.
