A development forum for high potential women Leaders
Elevating Leadership to the Next Level
Who the forum is FOR and how It is structured
Research suggests that women not only face unique leadership challenges in the workplace but are also more inclined to get in their own way of realizing their potential than men. Research also reveals significant benefits to women who are part of a community of women leaders where they share experiences, take risks and practice new skills.
This forum invites women who have several years of leadership experience and professionally and technically strong, who are seeking to develop the necessary confidence, skill and capacity to take their leadership to the next level.
Through learning, reflection and engaging conversation, the forum has women leaders come together to explore the parts of their inner world that hold them back; clarify who they are as their most powerful and impactful selves; discuss ways to deal with challenges; and develop skill in being a champion for themselves, their ideas, and their team.
At the end of the forum you will be
A More confident….…and competent leader
Discover how to manage imposter syndrome and other self-limiting beliefs
Navigate the double bind of communication
Understand common leadership traps and develop strategies to respond to them
Develop strategies to deal with stress caused by uncertainty and ambiguity
Adopt more empowered and resourceful ways of thinking and relating
Create conditions for those around you to thrive

what pARTICIPANTS are saying
“I found Claire’s approach to facilitation to be insightful, empowering and with good humour. Through the program I connected with amazing women in very different sectors than my own who were looking to further develop their leadership potential - staying connected with them as well as Claire continues to be an important part of my professional development.”
“The women’s leadership development program that Claire facilitates provided me with the framework and freedom to discover who I am as a leader and supported me in having the courage and conviction to lead from that place. As a result of the program I am clear on my values, strengths and priorities. I have developed the awareness and the tools to honour my leadership credo which serves to guide every decision I make.”
“Claire challenged us to ask ourselves the hard questions, leading us to gain insight into our own leadership style, aspirations and goals. Claire is particularly keen to see women gain confidence in their skills, recognize their natural talents and transform their vision into reality. I would recommend Claire to those looking for assistance in taking their leadership and their career to the next level.”
“The forum has required me to look at myself - not just my assumptions but dig deeper in to why I do or think the way I do. It helped me identify strategies and ways to reframe things that better support me in moving towards what I want to achieve and the legacy I want to create.”
“Claire’s coaching alllows each women in the forum to investigate individual areas of growth and encourages useful self-reflection. Each session builds upon the last and has enabled me to view my leadership differently than I ever had before. It is easy for me to see how this experience is facilitating growth in my leadership every day.”
“Themes emerged, creating a sense of connectedness and compassion amongst the women – we are not struggling with challenges alone. That made the coaching feel all the more tangible and relatable.”
“There is a sense of partnership which leads to a shared vocabulary and accountability. We check in with each other, support each other if we lose our way, and celebrate each other’s successes.”
“Claire is a skilled, experienced, and compassionate facilitator and coach. The takeaways and homework from this forum are inspiring in ways I never imagined.”
“It’s been very validating to know others experience similar challenges, and to feel part of something bigger. As a result of the forum, relationships are strengthening, and we are reaching out to one another in different and more productive ways.”
“I saw mentoring between the women that would not have happened before. I saw genuine sharing of work issues and no glossing over short-comings or difficult issues. I saw growth in every women in my group - in confidence, in the ability to share ideas, and in follow through. This HAS to be good for a company.”
“Through the group, peer to peer and individual coaching, I have tools to grow and thrive vs survive. I now embrace all that I bring to the table. As well, I’m sure I’ve never participated in a program where I continue to refer to the materials afterward as much as this one”
“I love this forum, and want more! It is an amazing program”
