Women belong in all places where decisions are being made. It shouldn't be that women are the exception.” ~ Ruth Bader Ginsberg

**This workshop is offered at a low rate as a part of HJC’s continued commitment to closing the leadership gender gap. HJC has pledged to offer at least one opportunity per month at these reduced rates to make programs for women and girls accessible.

We are putting women’s relationship to leadership under the microscope in this workshop, exploring our own hesitancy to claim our varied roles as leaders.

This workshop has two components. The first explores our relationship with leadership, by engaging with a living metaphor: the horse. Participants will be guided on a journey learning how to rewrite their leadership story, identify what leadership is for them and develop a personal strategy to move forward, through learning horsemanship principles.

All participants will have the opportunity to engage with and learn from Ellen and the HJC herd.

The second component will take place in the HJC indoor facility with a warm drink in hand! Participants will take a facilitated deeper dive into the experience they had with the horses and use what they learned to develop strategies which they can implement in their respective workplaces.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

  • Identify your leadership story.

  • Build self-awareness regarding your relationship with leadership.

  • Identify your leadership strengths.

  • Claim the title of leader.

  • Develop strategies to lead confidently.

Program will include a light snack and warm beverage.
