Course description
Despite your technical expertise, female managers often have difficulty being accepted by colleagues and subordinates. A woman’s inclination toward collaboration can be misconstrued as an inability to take charge. Yet, when you’re direct, others perceive you as abrupt and unfriendly. This course is designed to help women understand and manage this challenge. Through in-depth self-assessment, hands-on personal exercises, and interactive class experiences, participants will learn ways to be perceived as both competent and congenial.
By developing your female leaders early, you’ll create a pipeline of talent ready to step into leadership roles at critical moments. You’ll also build a competitive advantage at your company—research shows organizations with gender diversity in their leadership see a stronger financial performance.
