Course Length: 1-day
Course Overview
Explore the history of women in the workforce leading to opportunities for exploration, identification, and development of your leadership strengths and skills. The glass ceiling and wage gaps women face in the workplace are slowly changing. Currently, women represent 54.3% of the U.S. workforce yet only hold 35% of senior leadership positions. Even with a professional degree, women earn only 67% of their male counterparts. Women need to strengthen their leadership skills to shatter that glass ceiling and earn equal wages. This course will build on each previous lesson with topics including barriers versus benefits, understanding self-awareness, personal inventory, creating and selling your brand, and leadership skills.
