Women Leadership Program – Step Up
Step Up – is a course inspired by my own book Step Up and is meant for mid to senior professional women. The objective of the course is to strengthen a woman’s identity as they journey to excellence and expansion. This course is run within organizations.
It enables women leaders to address the challenges they face due to internal barriers in self. It also provides tools to navigate their organizational ecosystem with ambition and drive. Empowering practical advice, strategies, and exercises are taught during the course of the program.
How does Step Up for women help?
Step Up is truly unique among women’s mid-career leadership programs, and is designed to tackle challenges as leaders step up in their careers. In this course, they will:
- Become aware of early experiences that shaped who they are.
- Become self-aware seeing their strengths and the inner critic that holds them back.
- Identify their personal ‘CARES’ — what truly matters, and where do they wish to focus?
- Refocus their energy and time on actions and mindsets that grow them and step up to leadership.
- Learn to initiate actions and conversations that get results from your team.
- Learn how to overcome obstacles with powerful tools to make an impact on the stakeholders.
