Authentic Authority as Women Leaders

Date: Tuesday March 31, 2020 Time: 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm (BST) Price: £150.00 +VAT

How to build the authority you need as a leader

Our authority is earned through the skilful use of our power, and we all have at least 5 sources of power, including our personal power. In my experience, many women leaders struggle with this. Because it is a challenge when as women we need to be both authoritative and approachable.

And becoming skilful around that can sometimes feel like we’re being fake and not authentic.

So how do we make it work? Join me at my 90-minute session and you’ll become much more confident about how to build your authority as a leader, as a woman – and do this authentically and with integrity.

You’ll better understand your sources of power. And you’ll have new tools and insights for gaining an understanding of how your authority is received. You’ll learn how to become more intentional in deploying your authority so you can make your best leadership impact.

This is an opportunity for great learning and great networking – I hope to see you there! Contact me for more info at penny@pennydevalk.com

How Does it Work?
Once you have booked you will be sent an email confirming your Seat at the session, as well as a Zoom invite for your diary and your VAT receipt. The workshops are held over Zoom which is secure and free to use and only needs one click to join. A week beforehand you will be sent a reminder and some pre-reading or a You-tube watch to prime the topic and your learning, this won’t be more than a 15-minute time commitment.

On the day of the workshop you click on the link a few minutes before the alloted time, you will have your video on so everyone will be able to see one another in thumbnail. Please find a quiet space where you can talk freely with little background noise. There will be no more than ten. We will do introductions and I will be presenting material and facilitating breakouts and discussion with the group.

These sessions are not recorded and everyone agrees to complete confidentiality before we begin. This is designed to be a safe place for women leaders to learn but you only need to share what you want to. They are motivating, supportive, practical, insightful and fun!
