            Leadership Essentials

            Women's Group

            STRENGHTEN YOUR VOICE with a supportive network of professional women.

            Women Supporting Women

            Leadership Essentials Women’s Group (LEWG) is a leadership development program created for women by women who navigate many of the same challenges you do. LEWG provides a welcoming space for you to grow your leadership skills among a small, supportive cohort of women with diverse backgrounds and experiences. Together, we will learn from each other and explore the common issues we face: how to find your voice, how to thrive during times of transition, and how to balance the demands of your personal and professional life. You will gain confidence and learn practical tips and techniques to help you reach your full potential.

            Our Program is Designed With You in Mind

            What makes Leadership Essentials Women Group unique is the combination of full-cohort sessions and individualized leadership coaching. These two core components will give you what you need to take your professional talents to the next level.

            One-on-One Leadership Coaching

            LEWG participants will meet for six one-hour one-on-one coaching sessions with an experienced leadership coach. The agenda is yours. You can dig deeper into the topics covered in the sessions, set goals, create action plans, explore challenges, and reflect on your leadership experience.

             

            Ongoing Community

            The program concludes with a luncheon for current and past participants, the coaches and facilitators who support the program, and invited guests. Additionally, LEWG understands the value of creating a supportive, enduring community. As such, the cohort will continue to connect through virtual check-ins, in-person social gatherings, and ongoing volunteer opportunities to give back to the community.
