Women in Traditionally Male Dominated Industries – 3 Part Series

Underrepresented Future Leaders

Description

Few women reach the upper echelons in industries that are traditionally male dominated. Barriers to advancement are reinforced by systems, mindsets, and sometimes by self-fulfilling prophecies

The good news is that you can learn to leverage research-supported skills and strategies that the most successful female leaders have used to break through their own glass ceilings

In this workshop series, we pull back the curtain on the psychological science behind barriers to professional growth.

You’ll hear stories from women who pioneered the way and learn step-by-step skills they used to succeed. You’ll learn, rehearse, plan, and confidently impact your own career advancement

WORKSHOP 1
Leading from Within:
Building Your Brand

High-performing women often miss promotions—not due to lack of talent, but from uncertainty about which strengths to leverage into a personal brand and where to focus their growth. In this workshop, we reveal the “hidden resume” that the most successful women in traditionally male-dominated industries use to reach the top.

You’ll build self-awareness around your personal strengths, identify key areas for growth, and understand how “personal brand” works so you can leverage one for yourself.

WORKSHOP 2
Executive Presence and Self-Advocacy:
Commanding the Room

A lack of “executive presence” is frequently cited as a reason women aren’t promoted, often holding women to a different standard than their male counterparts. In this workshop, you’ll explore compelling research on what creates executive presence and build skills to show up as a Leader with a capital “L.”

WORKSHOP 3
The Influence Blueprint:
Strong Networks: Sponsors, Mentors, and Allies

In male-dominated industries, women tend to have smaller, less influential networks than their male counterparts, which limits access to high-impact opportunities and visibility in leadership circles. This workshop teaches research-backed skills that can open doors to mentorship, impactful opportunities, and greater leadership visibility.
