                Waitlist Now Open: Women’s Leadership Program 2026

                Michelle Sales/23 February 2026
                1 minute read time

                There’s a moment in a woman’s career where it becomes clear: the work is no longer the question.

                She’s delivering. She’s trusted. She’s influential. She’s often the one others rely on when things get messy, complex, or political.

                And yet… something still feels like it’s tightening.

                Maybe it’s the invisible expectations.
                Maybe it’s the need to be twice as prepared to be taken half as seriously.
                Maybe it’s the “you’re ready” conversation that never quite arrives.
                Maybe it’s the quiet decision to play smaller than your potential because it feels safer, easier, or less exhausting.

                If any of that lands, this is for you - or for a woman in your team who you know is ready for the next level.

                A cross-industry program for women stepping into senior influence

                The Leadership Connection Program is a transformational, cross-industry experience designed for women advancing to senior positions of influence and leadership.

                It’s not a “tips and tricks” course.
                It’s not a content-heavy program that feels great in the moment and fades by Monday.
                It’s not a generic leadership curriculum delivered at a distance.

                This is a six-month journey where we do the deeper work that actually shifts how a woman leads, influences, backs herself, and builds the alliances that matter.

                Because at senior levels, capability is expected.
                What changes the game is how you hold your position, how you navigate complexity, how you influence without burning out… and how you stay true to who you are while you do it.

                What makes this program different

                This program is built for women who are already proven - and are ready to become even more strategic, more confident, and more powerful in their impact.

                Across six months, I work closely with participants to:

                • Develop effective leadership strategies for senior roles and executive environments
                • Strengthen leadership confidence (not performative confidence - the grounded kind)
                • Enhance already proven capability so it translates at the next level
                • Build alliances and partnerships that help women thrive in systems that weren’t always designed for them
                • Challenge thinking, change the game, and take action - in real time, in the real world

                This is where women stop second-guessing what they already know.
                Where they sharpen their voice.
                Where they learn to influence without over-explaining.
                Where they stop carrying everything alone.
                Where they take up space - and keep it.

                The experience: opportunity, challenge, life-changing

                I describe this program as three things:

                An opportunity - to step into leadership with more clarity, courage, and control.
                A challenge - because growth requires honesty, reflection, and bold action.
                A life-changing experience - because what shifts isn’t just performance. It’s identity.

                Over six months, women don’t just learn about leadership.
                They become the leader they’ve been building toward.
