Authentic Leadership: How to Create a Lasting Impact

Authentic leaders are generally positive people who promote open and honest relationships with their followers. By building trust and generating enthusiastic support from members of the group, authentic leaders are able to improve individual and team performance. This session will explore the stories of several notable leaders in business, politics, media, and activism, and the passions that led those women to succeed. As a participant in this session, you will investigate five concepts to help you determine your own authentic leadership style.

You will also learn how to have constructive and compassionate conversations while learning best practices for your own self-care.

Radical Candor

This workshop will introduce you to the concept of “Radical Candor,” which is the ability to challenge people directly and show you care about them personally at the same time.
