The Power of Supportive Women’s Networks
Having a supportive network of women in your career can be one of the most important ingredients to your success. Like many young women, Amy believed that she would have the same opportunities as men in the workplace, but as she moved up the
corporate ladder, she noticed more and more women were not alongside her. During this session, Amy will share research and lessons learned from her own experience, and that from women she admires, on how to grow and learn at any stage
of your career to achieve your goals. No matter if you’re advanced in your career or just starting out, you will learn why it’s important for women to bring each other along on their professional journeys, and how to be more
mindful in supporting and aligning with women who inspire you. To further support you in your career journey, you will learn powerful tools on how to discover and align your authentic self and inner talents with the work you do to create
a greater sense of work-life harmony.
Learning objectives:
- How to create and nurture a supportive women’s network;
- Why it’s important to manage up, not just down;
- The power of finding or being a sponsor, not just a mentor;
- The steps to create a greater sense of work-life harmony; and,
- How to discover and align your authentic self and inner talents with the work you do.

Your Personal Brand: Bringing Your Authentic Self to Work
Your personal brand is how you represent yourself to the outside world — friends, family, and colleagues. It can be tempting to put on a mask — especially with social media, but it’s not authentic and people see through it
and may not relate to you at work or personally. Rather than worrying about your real personality coming through in how you portray yourself to the world, instead embrace it, and intentionally review what you put out into the world and
the experience you create. You may find that the people start responding to you differently because they are attracted to people that are authentic. Once you begin to connect on a more human level, you can create a meaningful relationship,
whether in business or at home.

Developing Your 30-Day Personal Purpose Plan
In this session, we will take a deep dive to understand where we are off balance in our lives between work and home and how it affects the experience we create for others. Many of us can feel that we are technically up to speed in what
we do; however, we are not living our full potential as a leader or a co-worker because we may not be aligned with our values and what we want to create in the world around us. In this session you will:
- Gain a better understanding of your personal purpose
- Explore how to keep your personal purpose aligned with who you are
- Create a 30-Day Personal Purpose Plan
By putting in place a review process for yourself, you can create the energy internally that you desire so that you show up better for those around you and create more success as a leader.
Review final thoughts, highlighting key insights and the significance of the the day.
