UVA_HRWomen in Leadership (Virtual)
The term Lean In has been coined by Sheryl Sandberg, to mean that you are seizing the opportunity to be promoted to the next level.
In her book, Sheryl argues convincingly that internal obstacles hold women back. While this is the most controversial part of her book, research shows us that it is true for both men and women. However, women face specific and different roadblocks from men as they advance in the workplace. In fact, the very habits that helped women early in their careers can hinder them as they move up.
This course will cover the following topics and objectives:
-
What is the leadership ambition gap, the glass ceiling, and the queen bee phenomenon.
-
The internal barriers women struggle with and allow you to develop a development plan that will guide you to take your career to new heights.
