Navigating Your Career Journey: A Bootcamp for Women Leaders in Higher Education

Navigating Your Career Journey: A Bootcamp for Women Leaders in Higher Education

Future dates coming soon!

Intentionally shape the next phase of your career with strategies and feedback from successful higher education leaders.

Overview

This six-week online bootcamp for women leaders is designed to help you manage conditions for career growth while gaining invaluable feedback on presenting and advocating for yourself on paper and in person. This is a unique opportunity to learn from some of the best leaders in the industry in a supportive environment alongside other women

This course is intentionally designed to start with an opportunity to reflect on your leadership strengths through completion of The Five Paths to Leadership® Self-Assessment and a 360-degree review with feedback from your network, so that you can discover your authentic leadership style. You will identify the skillsets needed to navigate the current and future higher ed landscape, so that you can write a compelling career narrative that captures your strengths, goals, and values. You’ll incorporate these insights into your external-facing communications—such as your CV, resumé, and LinkedIn profile. Most importantly, you’ll leave with a tangible action plan for how to grow your career and the connections that support your goals—all of which will be informed with feedback from the cohort—a network we hope you’ll leverage and support far into the future.
