Women’s Mastermind

Unlocking The Power of Authentic Feminine Leadership
Women's Mastermind
program introduction

Even the most confident and competent women leaders sometimes need time to step away and gain clarity about their roles. Leadership Development for Women challenges you to think about your identity as leader, choose what you want, and work intentionally to make it happen. While men and women are equally capable of effective leadership, research shows that we are strikingly different in how we promote our unique strengths and talents. Learn how you can strategically position yourself within the wider organisation as an influential and proactive leader. Gain the confidence to take risks, grab all opportunities for career progression, and exert greater influence over the choices you make. This is your opportunity to discuss and practice new ways of acting and thinking that matches your purpose, values, and self-concepts, resulting in a stronger vision of your leadership and where you want to go
