Women in Leadership II Certificate

The Women in Leadership II certificate builds upon the foundational leadership skills taught in the Women in Leadership I certificate. Women in Leadership I focused on you as an individual leader (or self-leading). Women in Leadership II focuses on outward facing leadership: leading others and your organization.

The program is taught by women, including the Dean of the David Eccles School of Business, Rachel Hayes, Ph.D. It is a cohort-style program focused on content, networking, and community aspect, which is essential to any leader’s success. The experience will challenge how you think and provide actionable takeaways to bring back to your organization. You will review your 360° assessment results from the Women in Leadership I certificate, retake the 360° assessment to see how you have grown as a leader, and re-establish areas you want to grow in.

“The impact that the program had on me was really increasing my confidence. The faith that I have in myself to get the big promotion or to have these accomplishments is night and day from before the course. I’ve been able to translate that into my career by networking and asking those around me for growth and showing them that I have these skills that can help our company and help our business.”
