It’s a Two-Way Street: Developing Women Leaders, Engaging Men as Allies

To significantly and positively impact women as leaders in the workplace, it is a two-way street. In this highly interactive session, Gisele Shelley, Executive Coach and Facilitator, will share context and research data on dynamics women leaders face in team settings, in leaders demonstrating unsupportive practices (often unconsciously) and how women leaders often get in their own way (often unconsciously). The real-world scenarios will be created and shared by the stories of participants in the room, including how male leaders can be allies and advocates. Participants will leave with a greater knowledge of what they currently do that gets in the way and what they can practically do to elevate their own leadership and that of the women around them.
