WORKSHOP: BREAKING THROUGH YOUR OWN GLASS CEILING Leadership is not a one time event; it s a practice. As professional women, we ve all heard of the proverbial glass ceiling. Some of the roadblocks we face are external but many of the roadblocks to our advancement are internal. We create internal barriers and unconscious roadblocks that create our own glass ceiling - that keep us from advancing and playing a bigger game. These internal barriers manifest in the form of negative self-talk, self-limiting beliefs, negative emotional patterns, and habits of expressing ourselves that don t serve what we want to create or how we want to be perceived. In this workshop, our focus will be on helping you discover the internal barriers, beliefs and habits that limit your success, contribution, and impact. You will have the opportunity to identify your own personal glass ceiling and walk away with concrete steps and practices to break through once and for all. You will identify and create a strategy that you can implement immediately to be more effective, engaging and impactful in your role. You will learn to: Design new ways to step up and step into a more powerful version of yourself Produce results without sacrificing core values Better manage overwhelm and overcommitment without more self-sacrifice Use your voice for greater impact, positioning, and execution Align what you most care about with how you lead in your work and in your life How you perceive your unique value matters! Want to step into a new future? it s important to continue to stretch and grow. We all need to continuously re-shape ourselves, keeping the core of who we are, to grow into what s next.
