Women In Leadership: Executive Leadership Skills Seminar

Are you ready to move ahead in your career? Want to develop your leadership skills? Join us from 9am-2pm for Women in Leadership: Executive Leadership Skills seminar sponsored by the MPI Foundation and American Airlines and leave with a personal action plan. ABOUT COURSE Women play key roles in the hospitality and meeting industries, but many find it challenging to move into leadership positions. In fact, recent studies show that women are 28% less likely to get an executive-level position even if they possess the skills that make other job applicants attractive candidates for CEO, COO, CMO and CFO positions. In this four-hour course, examine the why behind this phenomenon, what skills you can use or actions you can take to overcome it and create a personal action plan that advances your career, your leadership and your influence. Learn about the key roles women play in the hospitality and meeting industries and how to overcome career obstacles to executive-level positions. Review and learn from real-life case studies of women who have overcome adversity to excel in the meetings space, while maintaining the right balance for their personal and professional lives.

Participants of this course receive: 4 clock hours in CMP-IS Strategic Domain E: Human Resources; Domain F: Stakeholder Management Access code for Clifton StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment Individual Development Plan worksheets to create a personalized action plan Peer-to-peer mentoring Certificate in Executive Leadership Skills Lunch is included

WOMEN of NORLI was inspired by the desire of previous NORLI graduates, fueled by their experience, who want to be change agents in their community. Women of NORLI was created to provide women, who chose courage in leadership, the necessary resources to continue to grow both personally and professionally. “Through unification, education, and empowerment we are building up women leaders to overcome adversity by “embracing the suck”, welcoming failure as an opportunity for growth, improving awareness and identity, and mending the inevitable heartbreaks endured while daring to be great.” -Nunez, Chair

NORLI creates programs that cross pollinate efforts, bridge conversations, and introduce informed civility into our discussions. “The Southeast Louisiana that we want for our future only happens with intention. NORLI’s strength is in its people!” – S. Reuther, Exec Director
