Executive Program for Women Leaders

SHAMBAUGH Leadership and Penn State hold second session of the Executive Program for Women Leaders!

May 19, 2008

The Executive Program for Women Leaders breaks away from the typical "how-to" leadership program to focus on attributes of being a great leader. The program covers distinctive and common challenges, opportunities, and potential derailers that women face in their work environments. You will gain a greater awareness of the "sticky floors" (the self-limiting behaviors, assumptions, and beliefs that hold women back in their careers) and learn how to break free of them. You will leave this transformational experience poised with the confidence and competence to lead yourself, your team, and your organization more effectively.

Proven performance strategies will empower you to:
  • Acquire more corporate visibility
  • Build stronger strategic relationships
  • Develop authentic political savviness
  • Build an engaging climate for your team
  • Develop and be able to "flex" your leadership style
  • Handle more responsibility and exert greater influence
  • Make your words have greater impact
  • Negotiate for what you and your team want and need
  • Coach and mentor others
  • Improve work/life balance for yourself and others

The program is for fast-track women leaders and high-potential managers who are heading up teams, driving change initiatives, and directing business units.
