Where are all the women leaders? It is said that leaders are not born, they are made. If so how does one become a leader? How do you overcome perceptions, self-doubt or fear? How do you connect your skills and passions to your career or ministry? How does a Christian woman lead?
In addressing such questions this unique conference will gather women leaders from various disciplines - education, business and theology, drawing on their experience, wisdom and expertise to provide the answers. This dynamic experience will certainly change the way you perceive yourself as a leader, and provide you with the tools necessary to lead with passion. The conference will offer presentations, opportunities to reflect, study scripture, engage in discussions and network in order to help shape your leadership.
