WELCOME TO
WOMEN WHO LEAD
Dear Ladies,
My belief is that to lead with power and influence, not to mention a deep sense of integrity and authenticity, we need to have a strong sense of self, to be able to learn how to listen to and trust our intuition.
The intent of Women Who Lead is to create time and space for women to engage deeply and creatively around relevant issues, both professional and personal. The goal is to have a transformational experience, both as an individual and for the group.
To keep the programme intimate, places are limited, so you are advised to reserve your place as soon as possible.
I look forward to welcoming you.
Natalie
