Dr Yolanda Vega
Hi! I’m Yolanda Vega
I am driven by a passion to create a more balanced distribution of power between the sexes.
Across my seven careers, as a hairdressing apprentice to roles as a banker, croupier, journalist, editor, change manager, executive advocate, and now as a researcher, lecturer, and author, I have encountered individuals from all walks of life—both the renowned and the notorious. Along this journey, I have honed my communication skills and deepened my emotional intelligence.
I excel in achieving what many consider impossible. With a positive mindset, I transform challenges into opportunities, whether I am advising, consulting, researching, leading, or lecturing.
Testimonials
Yolanda’s lectures were one of the best things about my master’s degree at Monash University. I was always looking forward to attending her TED-talk-quality lectures every week, where I came out feeling energised and inspired. Her delivery is authentic, powerful, stimulating and highly engaging. I really enjoyed how Yolanda managed to convey complex academic concepts in an easy to understand and entertaining way no less, especially through sharing highly relatable real-life examples.
