Empowering women with strength to lead, how to use instead or loose femininity in leadership roles and how not to burn out
Women can make fantastic leaders but sometimes can feel like there is a lack vital skills or wonder if its ok to add the "feminine-touch". Being a female is an asset, not a disadvantage so never feel like its a "man's world". Whether you will make a good leader is down to what you're shaped to do and the skills you have acquired. The reality is that not everyone makes a good leader and that being a leader can be both positive and negative. For example it can be lonely to lead from the front and make tough decisions, it can be stressful and the buck sits with you. However, it can be empowering to bring leadership into the lives of others and shaping and driving forward visions and dreams.
