Women’s Leadership Program The Women’s Leadership Program is designed to help women discover and develop the qualities and skills that they need to be effective leaders in the workplace and in the community. This eight week program, open to seventy women each year, challenges women to examine not only their skills, but their attitudes about themselves and their willingness to accept the challenges and risks that come with leadership.
Here’s what graduates of the 2008 YWCA Leadership Program had to say about the 8-week program:
" I enjoyed the diversity of speakers and participants it provided a lot of perspectives and allowed me to expand my understanding." "I loved the speakers and their subject matter. I left every session feeling empowered and learning something new to apply to my own life." "I’m completely blown away by the depth of the messages presented by all the speakers. This has far more reach in my personal growth than I'd expected. Thank You!" "All expectations were overachieved! The best leadership program I have participated in within the last 28 years of my career."
