Do you think about the work you’re doing as an educator as leadership work?
If you’re not in a formal leadership position, you probably don’t.
But, you’re likely building lots of leadership skills – without even realizing it!
As educators, we have to manage so many responsibilities…
- We manage large and small groups of humans with ease.
- We build relationships with all members of our stakeholder community every single day.
- We are accountable to our students, our school, the parents, and our colleagues.
- And we do it all often without a break or a moment to stop and reflect and think about the amazing work we’re doing!
These are all leadership skills that will serve you in any position – within and beyond education, in a formal or informal leadership role.
Do you recognize these leadership skills within yourself?

What makes Women Who Lead unique?
We all know there are plenty of places where you can study the abstract academics of leadership. I hope you’re taking advantage of those opportunities too!
Women Who Lead is different.
Women Who Lead is designed to be a personal journey of the realities behind being a successful leader – told through the individual stories of over 70 experienced female leaders.
When we see successful female leaders, we often assume they had all the skills it took to be a leader right from the start, we don’t see the trials and challenges behind their journey. We don’t always recognize all the obstacles that stood in their way. And we rarely get a window into how they specifically overcame those challenges.
Right now you might be feeling:
- Anxious about a challenging conversation you have coming up
- Frustrated by the “old boys” club of international school networking
- Annoyed by the expectations that all leaders look, talk and work the same
- Uncertain about whether or not now is the time to apply for a leadership position
- Overwhelmed with everything you have to balance in your personal and professional life
- Curious about the difference between a senior leadership interview and a Head of School interview
- Stuck in your current position because there’s not enough opportunity for women
- Disappointed that you’ve never had the opportunity to work with a leader who looks like you
All of those experiences come up in the Women Who Lead conversations. Whatever struggle you might be facing, at least one of our Women Who Lead has faced it too! And found a strategy or solution to continue to move forward on their path.
In just ONE certificate program, you’re getting access to the stories and experiences of over 70 successful women. Women who have been through exactly what you’re going through and have come out the other side. Women who want you to succeed too. Women who are passionate about supporting and uplifting other women.
