Reframe for Confidence
8 Weeks starting Thursday, May 6th on Zoom
9:00AM – 10:30AM
Who should attend?
Women looking to take the next step in their career or business.
Why you should attend?
- Women often feel less assured than men and evidence proves that to succeed confidence matters as much as competence.
- Research shows that in order to apply for a job, women feel they need to meet 100% of the criteria, usually after meeting about 60%.
- LinkedIn behavioral data backs this up — women tend to screen themselves out of the conversation and end up applying to 20% fewer jobs than men.
- As women, we are 51% of the population, yet women only occupy 3.5% of the CEO roles in our country, according to a recent Canada-wide diversity study.
What you will get out of it?
- Transform Fear
- Build Confidence
- Set Goals and Meet them
- Let go of Excessive Expectation
- Communicate with Impact
