Presentation Description:

Authenticity is a complex issue for female leaders. Societal expectations say women should demonstrate softness, but when they do, they are seen as personable not powerful. On the flip side, when women speak up or exert authority they are seen as aggressive rather than assertive. This damned-if-you do, damned-if-you-don’t double bind scenario plays out daily in the workplace resulting in penalties particularly for women. It's time to rewrite the narrative and pave the way for authentic female leadership in today's evolving professional landscape. Discover the strategies needed to manage the double bind by knowing the invaluable perspectives you bring to the table, leveraging your unique style, and supplementing your strengths without diminishing yourself in the process. You will leave empowered and inspired as you learn how to unlock your female potential and contribute at the highest level.
