What’s Happening
The programs and events at The Women’s Edge are focused on helping participants develop professionally and personally. We offer a variety of schedules and formats, giving you the freedom to participate in whatever way works best. Our programs and events bring together leaders across industries to develop skills, grow networks, advance careers, and collaborate towards a more equitable future for all. With our variety of offerings and engagement options, everyone can get involved.
Leadership Forums
We offer forums for CEOs, executives, and nonprofit executive directors – each a peer group of 8–10 women from non-competing organizations who meet regularly in confidential, professionally-led half-day sessions.
These forums serve as an informal advisory board, providing a safe, confidential space to explore challenges and strengthen leadership skills. Members are carefully matched to groups that fit their background and needs, ensuring each session is both relevant and professionally facilitated.
