ADVANCING AND RETAINING WOMEN LEADERS

Strategic frameworks for supporting women's leadership development, advancement, and retention

Organizations talk about advancing women into leadership but they're losing experienced women leaders at the same time. The challenge isn't just pipeline development, it's about creating environments where women can advance and sustain their leadership through all career stages, including midlife transitions.

I provide keynote presentations and strategic workshops that address both advancement and retention: how to develop women leaders, support their progression into senior roles, and retain experienced women navigating perimenopause and midlife career transitions.
