For more information: trainingvp@few.org - Leveling Up for Success Training Series Session IV: The Importance of Being Resilient and Taking Strategic Risks
As to why some women achieve well in their careers while others are passed over for promotions, think about the following.
The inability to bounce back from setbacks and the fear of failure are common explanations. Learning how to "bounce back" from setbacks and being more confident taking calculated risks are particularly vital for women. Fortunately, the abilities
to view setbacks as opportunities for development and to maximize one's leadership strengths are both teachable.
In this session, you will learn effective strategies for rethinking ambiguity, embracing healthy conflict, adjusting to difficult circumstances, and stepping outside of your comfort zone to pursue novel avenues of professional growth.

January
- Leveling Up for Success Training Series Session V: Creating a Meaningful Mentoring Partnership: G.R.O.W.
Finding someone at work who will support, encourage, and challenge you is one of the best ways to advance your career
and develop your skills. Typically, this type of relationship involves mentoring. The advantages of having a mentor have been extensively documented. To reap the benefits of mentorship for oneself or one's organization, the mentor-mentee relationship
is crucial. This training will explore how to create effective and meaningful mentor relationships using the G.R.O.W. (G(oal), Current Reality, Options (or Obstacles), Will (or Way Forward) model and how it helps define the goals for the mentor-
mentee relationship.
