Testimonials
“I benefited enormously from the program, particularly in the areas of confidence and strategic thinking. Understanding some of the challenges that women face when moving from tactical contributor to the strategic leader was really helpful – it made me realize that the challenges I was facing weren’t unique to me and were in fact very common. It was also really helpful to hear stories and thoughts from so many women in similar situations, as it made me feel a lot less alone. One of the most important things I learned from the program is that I already had a lot of great skills that brought value to my company – I just needed to learn how to best leverage those skills and increase my visibility and strategic thinking skills. Kim and Ilhiana were great coaches, and I would highly recommend this program to future and current women leaders!”
