The Leader Within is a 6-month virtual leadership development program that builds confident, competent, and connected leaders.

This program helps professionals at all levels recognize and optimize their individual strengths, hone their authentic leadership presence, and confidently contribute to their organization, all while creating a community that fosters lifelong, trusted relationships among industry women across the globe.

Facilitated by an International Coaching Federation and Energy Leadership–certified coach, this immersive program brings together a cohort of participants for monthly 90-minute virtual sessions. Together, you’ll uncover your unique leadership vision, deepen your self-awareness, and enhance your presence—both professionally and personally.

This course is for women only.

I would recommend The Leader Within to any woman who is wondering how to reach the next level. The Leader Within helped me identify the areas where I’ve been limiting myself and has given me the frameworks to move past the beliefs, mindsets, and patterns that were holding me back. I feel inspired to take on new challenges from a place of internal strength, and I look forward to using these tools in my daily life!

The biggest impact of participating in the program is the increase of self-awareness in both professional and personal life. I would highly recommend (and already did) to a friend/colleague for the benefit of getting out of the routine and seeing yourself in another dimension. This program is a must.

The Leader Within program taught me that to be a highly effective leader I need to firmly know who I am and what value I deliver for an organization and its people. As a result, I am more confident trying to tackle big problems because the ground is sturdy beneath me. I have clarity and intentionality in how I want to show up as a leader, in moments both big and small.
— Melanie Laursen, Cybersecurity at Target
The tools offered to me in The Leader Within emphasized leading with grace. By understanding more about myself, I can approach work and its many scenarios with less strife, less stress, and much more joy.
— Sabine Zimmer, VP, Sales and Marketing, Shared Assessments
The Leader Within program has had a significant impact for me professionally. I have been able to enhance my leadership skills, boost my self-awareness, and it has provided me with tools for a stronger leadership presence. I especially liked the connections around how we may better understand the distinction between time and energy management. This experience has heightened my confidence and enabled me to inspire my team through obstacles, nurture a culture of collaboration and innovation among both team members and our stakeholders.
