Over the last three years, we've helped more than 1,000 women recognize and replace habits that were holding them back in their careers in our "Take Your Career to the Next Level" series.

One of the most frequent asks we've heard is that, while people are able to immediately take action based on our sessions, they wish there was a way to practice and drive more accountability around the new behaviors they are establishing to make them truly transformative. So we've taken what we've learned from running that series, and incorporated it into this course.

We've learned that tiny changes in habits can make all the difference in your career.

Our goals are to help you:

• Identify or name unhelpful habits you don't know you have

• Connect with others who are going through the same challenges

• Become more strategic about how you approach your career

• Set and maintain new boundaries

• Establish accountability as you practice and change your habits

WHAT TO EXPECT:

This course is about looking at habits you might not have intentionally chosen or even noticed that you’re doing. We'll provide actionable tips and ideas for how to change or replace the habits. 

This is a highly-interactive course with in-depth discussion, Q&A, examples, exercises, and tactics you can apply immediately. There are 7+ hours of live instruction on Zoom. We will focus on both the "what" might be holding you back, and tactical pieces around the "how" to transform.

After the first 2 days, you will have a better sense of what might be holding you back and specific actions to take. For the 3 weeks that follow, you'll pick a habit or behavior to focus on, and, with the support of your cohort and online materials, you'll practice how to change the habit to make it work for you. Weekly, you'll get accountability exercises to put the concepts into practice, have the opportunity to ask questions in Maven as you go, and access to a live Q&A discussion with Jen and Naomi.

Course content

#1. Strategic Career Thinking

Make sure your hard work is getting you to where you want to be.

Do you…

- Rely on hard work and being an expert to get you ahead, without strategizing career moves?

#2. Influence

Leverage relationships to reach your goals and get the recognition you deserve.

Are you…

- Unaware of how you're perceived in your organization?

- Hesitant to network?

- Reluctant to ask for help to expedite learning?

- Uncomfortable with self-promotion?

- Awkward when seeking feedback?

#3. Presence & Authenticity

Build your confidence and credibility by commanding your personal power.

Do you…

- Wait for direction or explicit approval before taking action?

- Bring problems without solutions?

- Use passive language that undermines your authority?

- Feel that you're either too much or not enough?

#4. Ruthless Priorities

You can achieve more without trying to do everything.

Do you…

- Perfect everything before sharing?

- Prioritize others' needs over your own?

- Struggle to say no, leading to overcommitted?

The course includes:

• Review and reflection

All the sessions will be recorded for reference.

This course is about sharing what we've learned and how it has helped us and many others. It's not about pointing out where you are insufficient and telling you to change. You decide how to use this information to create the career you want to have.
