Leadercamp on-demand: Women in Leadership-Let's Move the Needle
While the trend indicates increased representation of women leaders across all levels since 2016, women still continue to be significantly underrepresented in leadership. It's critical to examine key challenges and best practices that organizations can adopt to increase women representation at leadership levels. But is that enough? Clearly not. Women leaders need to take charge of their growth by identifying their superpowers, finding sponsors, and networking. In this course, cofounder of eWOW and DEI evangelist Shweta Mogha focuses on these elements to ensure that women leaders carve their own path to success and have a seat at the table.
