"The Elizabeth Kearney Women's Leadership Development Program has transformed the way I view my role as a leader. The program has taught me how to live in my areas of strength and to be deliberate in how I lead my life. I feel I have renewed energy to help me make a difference at my workplace, in the community, and with my family. The program has provided an exceptional networking opportunity to meet and work with amazing women from diverse backgrounds. My confidence as a leader has increased exponentially and I know I can lead both a successful and happy life". |

"The Women's Leadership Program has given me a glimpse into my community I didn't have before. It made me look inside as well as outside myself. We were a powerful, enthusiastic group of women that has dormant dreams awakened; internal challenges calling us to a new level. Each month we heard women share their real-life stories on how they impacted their world. It made me realize. ..I'm just like her and if she can change her world, I can to! Every month we walked away with a new set of tools to use in our lives; things that no one can take away from us. Now it's our turn to use them change our world. What a great gift that we will keep on giving. Thanks for this opportunity." |
