New York, NY

Workshop description:

Have you ever offered an idea in a meeting and no one acknowledged you, then ten minutes later a man said the same thing and people thought it was a great idea? Do you wonder why women are stuck at 18% of the top leadership positions across all sectors, earning $1million less than men over a career, despite being half the workplace and 54% of the voters?

Do you have big ambitions but aren’t sure how to achieve them? Learn practical tools from the woman People Magazine called “the voice of experience” for how you can embrace your power, enhance your leadership skills, and lead your dreams forward.

It’s a new year and a great time to get inspired while learning 9 Power Tools—practical bite-sized tips you’ll use to clarify your intentions and make an action plan that will enable you to reach your goals for work, civic life, or personal relationships. During the workshop, you will have a chance to give and get feedback on your application of the Power Tools to a goal or goals you will define, and you’ll leave energized for the year ahead.

Please note the ticket price for this class includes a copy of Gloria’s book No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power.

GLORIA FELDT is the best selling author of No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power; a teen mom who became president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Federation of America; and an expert on women, power, and authentic leadership. She teaches “Women, Power, and Leadership” at Arizona State University and is an inspiring keynote speaker and workshop leader whom Vanity Fair named one of “America’s Top 200 Women Leaders, Legends, and Trailblazers.” She believes this is women’s moment to lead unlimited lives and reach parity from the boardroom to the bedroom for good – their own, and society’s.

Jane Fonda says No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power has the power to change your life; Rosario Dawson was inspired by it, and Gloria Steinem calls it “Indispensable…the coach young women need.” Author Gloria Feldt brings her decades of leadership experience, the latest research, and interviews with women across the country to this challenging and transformational book. No Excuses doesn’t just analyze the roadblocks to women’s relationship with power that have kept us from reaching parity at work, in politics, or in personal relationships; it gives the practical “Power Tools” to lead and live without limits–along with the inspiration to use them.
