Is advancing women a strategic priority in your organization?

Are you building a culture where women leaders can excel and flourish?

Do the women in your company feel valued and supported, that they can grow as individuals and leaders?

Gender parity isn’t a women’s issue- it’s a business issue.

At a time when it’s never been more important, 50% of organizations have no clear strategy to advance women leaders. Nearly half of those that do have a plan do not address barriers faced by women, such as corporate culture. Last year, 45% more women than men left jobs in the top growth sectors, citing culture as the primary reason.

The good news is that there are success stories and new ideas gaining traction, making a difference in retention, advancement, and engagement of women talent and women as customers.

What is genuinely getting results?
Women leaders at all levels stay at their companies longer and excel in their careers when organizations address four key areas:

• Culture of inclusion, where the human aspect is present in every decision.
• Executive commitment and deliberate action to make women’s advancement a strategic priority.
• Focused and intentional leadership development programs, initiatives, and policies.
• Individual development opportunities for women to uncover behaviors and beliefs that create barriers to success.

Explore with Betsy how you can increase your success around women’s
leadership. We can tailor a program for your organization that will create significant progress in the support, advancement, and retention of this valuable resource.

What does success look like at work and home?

When the stakes are high, organizational politics are at play, and your emotions are triggered, do you act consciously and strategically?

Are you waiting for someone to notice your efforts and good work?

Are you caught in a to-do list of demands, keeping you from getting to what really matters in your life?

Every woman is a leader. It is our personal responsibility to be the leader of our life, and understand our strengths, weaknesses and what might be holding us back.

The hardest person we will ever manage is ourselves, but we must start there. The key is a commitment to self-awareness and self- knowledge. Looking outside ourselves for our value, or waiting for someone to notice our greatness, is a dead end. We must instead take the reins of our careers and our lives. Our true power lies in our willingness to lead ourselves. We cannot lead others before we learn ourselves. That is where our true power lies and how we will achieve the results we desire in our personal and professional lives.

Work with Betsy to examine the key aspects of self-leadership:

• Self-awareness: Knowing your strengths, weaknesses, values, beliefs, and emotions. The willingness to understand what gives you energy and what might be holding you back.
• Self-motivation: Being clear about your why and what success looks like for you professionally and personally. Combining discipline, the willingness to seek support and mentorship, and building the confidence muscle to move toward your goals, even when faced with challenges.
• Social awareness: Being aware of the social context around you and understanding how others perceive, hear, and interact with you. It is the ability to be your authentic self while also being strategic to succeed in the role that you hold and have chosen.

Learn tools and action steps to support today’s women leaders, personally and professionally, while diving deep into reflections that will inform our personal leadership objectives and create a strategy to become our best selves.

Does your own success come with anxiety, because your self-doubt makes you sometimes feel like you’re a fraud?
