Women'sVision
Leadership Institute
Program
Over
the 12 month duration of the program a leadership Coach
is assigned to each participant and is the principal connection
between the individual woman and the other elements of the
program. The Coach provides personalized guidance throughout
the program and partners with the participant's manager and
mentor to create an environment to support and enhance the
learning experience.
WVLI believes that the involvement of the participant's Manager
enhances the development and success of the woman. The Manager
and the participant's coach work together to support the woman's
ongoing development. The input from the manager is important
to the structure of a personalized growth plan.
Each Participant is aided in finding a Mentor. While
the Mentor is guiding the Participant, he/she meets with the
coach to help the Participant achieve her leadership objectives.
When a woman needs additional assistance in specific job skills
expert Resource People are made available.
Every four-five weeks, Participants attend a workshop
to learn skills based on core leadership competencies and
to network with other businesswomen. Between workshops, Participants
work on assignments that insure learning applications for
herself, her team and coworkers. More detail is available
on the workshops by looking in the Program Content Section
of this document.
In addition, executives from the Participants' companies (including
the Participant's Manager and Mentor) are invited to attend
an annual Culture Shift Event to learn about corporate
best practices used to develop, promote and retain women leaders.
Continuing Education Units: Upon request, 13 Continuing
Education Units (CEU's) are available from Colorado State
University.
