Advance Women At Work: Women's Leadership and Empowerment

Intended Audience: Customizable for entry-level female professionals to senior executives

Our gender identity determines how we approach work and professional relationships, but it also means employees who identify as women face a variety of specific challenges that can hold them back from achieving their potential.  Women are held to a different set of standards (aka the ‘Double Bind’) that require them to communicate differently from their male counterparts.  Women also face a lack of sponsorship and are often excluded or diminished through words and/or behaviors.  At the same time, women are hungry to learn how to negotiate more effectively, advocate for themselves and share their most creative and innovative ideas without facing judgment or interruptions. When you help women navigate their internal roadblocks and external barriers, you achieve measurable and meaningful change.  Countless research studies show faster decision-making and an increase in innovation. And women who feel empowered, heard, and included are less likely to leave their jobs.

 

Informed by original research developed with behavioral scientists from Wharton and delivered via an applied-learning format, Advance Women at Work offers inspiring and actionable content to help women be more fearless at work and in life. We survey your team and then design an in-depth program focused on the “Fearless Fundamentals” of Confidence, Communication, Control, Connections, and Courage.  Your customized curriculum dives deepest into the biggest challenges, areas of need and growth opportunities.  The combination of inspirational and actionable insights, exercises, and small group work results in mindset and behavioral changes that accelerate advancement while driving better business results.

 

Attendees will leave with: 

  • An understanding of what’s holding them back and strategies to overcome personal roadblocks

  • More confidence and a plan for developing necessary skills and strategies to fulfill their mission  

  • Methods to communicate more assertively to enhance credibility and impact

  • A roadmap to advance their careers by developing a Personal Board of Directors

  • And much more… depending on your team’s specific needs

Advance Women At Work: Manager Training for Next Generation Leaders

Intended Audience: Customizable for mid to senior-level female managers and executives

In this age of transformation and disruption, leading with purpose and without fear is critical to thrive.  Female leaders are uniquely positioned to succeed given inherent feminine strengths, including EQ and social-relational skills. But they still face a myriad of internal and external barriers that hold them back from achieving their potential. Research shows they are less likely to interrupt others as they share their ideas, but they are more likely to be interrupted. Women are more prepared, yet avoid taking risks because they are afraid they are not prepared enough. They are social but less inclined than men to form strategic networking relationships. They lift each other up, but consistently struggle to advocate for themselves.

 

This Level II workshop explores these contrasts and offers valuable insights, skills, and alternative strategies to help attendees accelerate their success.  The training is relevant for every modern female leader, whether their purpose is to break through that glass ceiling to effect meaningful change, build their own business, or align their current company to purpose.   

 

Attendees will leave with: 

  • A roadmap to identify their purpose  

  • Real business examples of how world-class leaders and companies are driving innovation

  • Techniques for reducing bias and interruptions in the workplace

  • Strategies to leverage strategic alliances and relationships that help advance their mission

  • A tactical plan to apply what they’ve learned so they can inspire and lead from the inside out

Attendees with leave with:

  • An understanding of how mindset and visualization can build confidence for future communications and methods to deploy on their own

  • Awareness of the Impostor Syndrome competence types and techniques to overcome their challenges

Allyship & The Modern Male Leader: How to Build a Culture of Inclusion and Empowerment

Intended Audience: Male professionals and leaders

Cultivating an inclusive culture is a top priority for ‘modern leaders,’ but it is easier said than done.  Sexual harassment and unconscious bias training are just the first steps in creating an organization where everyone can thrive equally.  Male executives and managers are expected to build collaborative cultures that drive innovation, engagement, loyalty, and the bottom line, but they aren’t given a playbook on how to make that happen.  Until now.

 

In this helpful, supportive, and non-judgmental program, we provide 'the good guys' with an insider’s look at the top growth barriers for women, the science behind it, and what they can and should do, to achieve gender equity. We help the men in your organization tackle the necessary attitudinal, operational, and behavioral changes, including topics like non-promotable work, the double bind, the broken rung, microaggressions, and meeting interruptions, among others. Your team will learn new strategies to help female reports and colleagues be more empowered and effective while promoting an inclusive culture.


Attendees will leave with:

  • Knowledge of the top factors holding women back from achieving their potential and what they can do about it

  • A better understanding of the Gender Issue Spectrum--from harassment to microaggressions

  • A plan to shift how they operate across key leadership functions including talent recruitment, pay and promotion equity, culture, and team dynamics

  • Simple methods to create a psychologically safe environment and encourage collaboration
