Ethics Based Leadership for Women

Dec 31, 2026 2:30pm - 4:30pm

Online

2.00 Credits

Member Price: $89

Glantz and Associates is pleased to offer "Ethics Based Leadership for Women," a webinar designed to empower any woman who wishes to consider the privileges, responsibilities and challenges of holding leadership positions. We believe that leadership and ethics are intrinsically connected and will explore women in leadership through an ethics-based lens. The reality is, despite women representing approximately half of our world's population, they are significantly underrepresented in the workforce and most notably in leadership positions. In fact, not only do women have to cross more hurdles to advance into leadership positions, but when they do, they are burning out at a much faster rate than their male counterparts. In this course, we will discuss both the external societal barriers as well as the internal barriers that sabotage women from moving into leadership positions. We will examine common believes ("I should be nice," "I am an imposter", etc.) as well as behaviors that can hold women back and then offer suggestions for moving forward. We will provide tools to enhance one's self-awareness, create openings for self-reflection as well as provide opportunities to take on new perspectives. This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.Note: This course qualifies to count toward the WICPA membership Ethics CPE requirement.
