Women’s Networking Association Learning Session

“Women Do it Differently!”

This highly interactive session is designed to expand women’s sense of who they are as leaders and what they need, on an on-going basis, for support and encouragement from one another. We will use the Athena Leadership Model as our base and discuss how women leaders lead differently from the traditional make, hierarchical model of management. Several protocols, or strategies, will be used to structure and facilitate 1-1 and small-group conversations during the session.
