Workshop Description:

 This hands-on workshop is designed for women small business owners and leaders ready to step into their full power on the job and in the boardroom. We’ll discuss Four Pillars for personal and business development: Confidence, Negotiation, Professional Growth, and the Dual Employer/Employee lens.  

Participants will gain practical strategies to trade hesitation for command, negotiate compensation and opportunities with confidence, and create a clear path for continued growth. You'll leave with more than inspiration - you'll leave with a personalized 90-day action plan to strengthen your leadership skills and advance your career.

Expect interactive activities, real-world role-plays, and take-home worksheets you'll actually use. Whether you're swinging the hammer or signing the contracts, this is where you lay the foundation for what's next. Bring your goals — leave with a blueprint.
