Reimagining Power: New course offering for Leaders by CRHESI Member

Louise Pitre, Principal of Louise Pitre Coaching & Consulting is offering Reimagining Power: Gender, Leadership, and Change, an embodied learning journey for leaders who identify as women, transgender, or non-binary and want to explore the intersections of power, leadership, and systems change.

Dates: Wednesday, September 14th, 2022, every two weeks until November 23rd, 2022.

Course Description: In a peer setting, participants will explore relationships to power, the pressures to adopt dominant ways of leading, and how we can envision and embody radically healthier, more collective, and more transformative ideas of leadership power. Now more than ever, as more women, trans, and non-binary people step into leadership roles, there is a need for brave and compassionate spaces to do the inner work of leadership, build community, figure out how to do power differently, and move the needle on justice-doing work.
Reimaging Power: Gender, Leadership and Change is that space!

Previous participants, when asked how they would rate their experience with this learning journey rated it a 9 out of 10 and responded similarly to the question how likely they were to apply what they had learned in their work and personal lives. One participant expressed, “This was a powerful personal exploration of how women experience leadership and power that was centred on learning with and from female-identified folx. Skillful facilitation and deep reflection that gave me tools, understanding, confidence and a great opportunity to share and learn with other people asking similar questions.”
