Busy, action-oriented professional women like you who want to fulfill their full potential and lead a more authentic, successful and rewarding life… at work and beyond!
“I loved every minute! The DISC is wonderful. I got a lot out of valuable insights from it. I also really liked the vision exercise and the Stepping into Action. The added bonus of the day: meeting so many wonderful women!” — 2009 Conference Attendee Amanda, Reston, VA
Why Attend?
Led by accredited and certified coaches Margie Warrell and Arty Coppes, this full-day program promises to be an investment in yourself that will reap rewards for years to come! During this conference you will learn strategies to:
- Grow your innate leadership ability to influence and bring out the best in those around you
- Manage your commitments more effectively, so you feel less pulled in multiple directions
- Address sensitive or contentious issues in ways that build trust, collaboration and create alignment around common goals
- Make more powerful requests and create an environment of accountability
- Deal with difficult people, navigate confrontation and diffuse conflict
- Create an action plan for addressing your key challenges (from work/life balance to organizational conflict) and achieving your goals (which may include resetting them!)
- Take a break from your busy life to reconnect with what inspires you most deeply so you can move forward with greater clarity, confidence and courage!
“Fabulous day that not only has helped me refocus on why I do what I do but also gave me a lot of practical strategies and ideas to be more effective at what I do — from how I manage my time and communicate better with others to ways to resolve conflict and enjoy more balance in my very hectic life. Thanks Arty and Margie. You managed to exceed my expectations!” — 2009 Conference Attendee Susan Thomas., Washington D.C.
