I really enjoyed the EmpowerHER sessions — the opportunity to connect with professionals from diverse sectors across the country, along with the well-curated and expertly facilitated discussions on leadership and organizational change, was invaluable. I came away with a deeper understanding and clear conceptual frameworks, as well as many practical tools and strategies I was able to implement right away.  I would highly recommend the program to anyone in a middle management or leadership role.

Participating in the EmpowerHer program was a valuable and rewarding experience. I wish I’d had the opportunity to take it earlier in my career. The program helped me recognize subtle cues and patterns that can quietly limit professional growth, while strengthening behaviours that build confidence, influence, and empowerment. The facilitators were excellent at creating an engaging and collaborative environment where meaningful discussions and reflection felt natural. I left the program feeling inspired and equipped with practical strategies to continue growing with clarity and purpose.

One of the positive highlights was the opportunity for participants to engage in role-playing exercises, which provided a safe and constructive space to practice new skills, gain confidence, and receive real-time feedback from both peers and coaches. These experiences not only deepened understanding of effective communication and leadership strategies but also allowed me to share my professional life experiences, whether they were good or not.
