Greetings!
Leadership comes in all shapes and sizes, yet how do we recognize leadership when it presents itself?
We see it with a calm, assured presence under pressure. We hear it when praise is given for a job consistently and reliably delivered. We feel it when kind words and heart felt sentiments for losses suffered or trials endured are expressed.
We know it when someone cares.
Cultivating a leadership presence and learning to communicate as a leader are skills that can be developed and improved. I'm delighted to offer several new programs for women to improve upon these critical leadership skills without losing your authenticity in the process.
Want the experience and expertise of your own private group of successful business owners to provide advice and consultation to your business plans and strategies?

Self-Care: An Essential Leadership Skill
How many employed women are the sole providers in their home? How many are taking care of their children who are still at home (or have recently moved back in...), their aging parents, and an ill spouse? Oh yes...and they're still managing to work full time, too!
The statistics of caregivers who are full-time employed women are startling. So who's taking care of the caregivers? A critical function of leadership is being able to function well under pressure. Learning how to care for yourself while leading others is as much art as it is skill. Leaders know how to recognize when employees need more than just a few words of kindness and need a real break instead. The difficulty can arise in learning to recognize the need for rest when the person is yourself! What could be more rewarding than a weekend away from everything to relax, recuperate, replenish energy, to regroup, to learn the critical leadership skill of self-care?
You deserve it ....a WEEKEND OF WELLNESS to focus on healing the body, mind and spirit.
November 5-7, 2010
...time with nature and time for yourself
