Women leadership

Women must learn to understand better the terrain they’re operating in – the ecosystem they’re engaged in – and power up their skills and accountability in order to navigate it successfully. Women Leaders are often held back by self-limiting beliefs and thus appear less assertive and less confident. Many women leaders do not believe they can embrace all facettes of themselves and still be a successful leader at work. The often feel not being heard in meetings; they struggle to negotiate or to ask directly for a promotion; they are told to step in and up, to be more assertive and then they fear to be called “bossy” or to loose their authentic personality!
