Workshops

EmpowHERed offers workshops that help women leaders overcome common challenges leading to empowHERment and success. These workshops are based on the research, content, and critical data collected for the award-winning Women in Leadership course, a course Susan and Anjali created and teach at American University Kogod School of Business. 

These workshops examine the challenges and barriers women leaders face, offer tools and strategies that can be integrated immediately to overcome these barriers, and provide support and a sounding board for women to brainstorm how to navigate their specific challenges.

The workshops provide an overview of common challenges as well as dive deeper into specific challenges including negotiation and communication, catering both to women leaders in the workplace, as well as women business owners.

If you have a women’s group, association, or networking organization that is interested in these workshops, EmpowHERed can customize and curate the content based on your needs and audience. These workshops are just a sampling of our offerings. Contact us to learn more and build custom workshops to meet the needs of your women leaders.
