Find Your Why
Having a clear purpose gives you focus, determination, and staying power to keep at the day-to-day hustle. During this session we peel back the layers of our motivations to find the core truth that keeps us moving forward. This insight gives us direction and is the foundation for our personal grit. It will help you share your story, invite people to join you, and give you meaning. Participants walk away with a clear purpose statement that will guide them through thick and thin. This purpose statement is a powerful input to the Own Your Future session that follows, and the Grit session on Day 3.
Own Your Future
Women who understand where they want to go are much more likely to find unexpected opportunities that will lead them there. In this session you will create a vision for your professional experience based on what’s important to you and the difference you want to make. We walk away from this session with the outline of an action plan that will build upon for the rest of the week. This action plan is a fantastic resource for the first Ring of Reciprocity of the week.
Ring of Reciprocity
Personal network is the 2nd more important influence power source, but it’s only as powerful as what we ask of it. In this session, we each share 3-5 clear “asks” of the network in the room, and then trade resources and insights that directly address our needs. Not only do we all have an opportunity to leverage the network in ways that help us, we all can contribute to the success of each other.
The Influencer’s Toolkit
Your ability to effectively influence and inspire others is a function of both your power and pathway. In this session, we explore the anatomy of influence, pulling it apart into the sources of power and various pathways that contribute to an individual's influence effectiveness. Participants complete a personal diagnostic that establishes an influence baseline, and highlights areas where intentional focus could increase personal influence.
Grit
Personal grit is the MOST POWERFUL source of influence and impact. Kelly McGonigal defined grit as a combination of three things: I will, I won’t, and I want power. In this session we take a look at the personal grit challenges we have, and pick apart which of the three power sources we need to build to better tackle them. Then we review some of the best ways we can build our grit. We walk away with a powerful sense of motivation and a go-get-it attitude.
