WLF: Unlock Your Potential - Being the Leader You Want to Be
2025-02-11 12:00 - 13:30 (America/New_York) | Zoom Event
Unlock Your Potential – Being the Leader You Want to Be
Is there a gap between the leader you are and the leader you want to become? You have the skills and ambition, but something seems to be holding you back. Often, it’s not external obstacles but internal barriers like self-doubt, fear of failure, or old habits that prevent us from stepping into our full potential.
Imagine gaining the clarity to see what’s stopping you and finally moving past it. What would it look like if you embraced your authentic self and took that leap forward?
To become the leader you aspire to be, it’s essential to identify and shift the obstacles in your way.
Our upcoming interactive webinar Unlock Your Potential: Becoming the Leader You Aspire to Be on February 11th, noon-1:30pm EST/18:00-19:30 CET, will guide you through this process.
This isn’t just about learning new theories—it’s about creating a personal transformation. It’s about shifting your mindset, breaking through barriers, and stepping into your full leadership potential. Ask yourself:

What stories am I telling myself that might be limiting my growth?
What would be possible if I moved beyond those barriers?

Join Heidi Piper and Dawn Garibaldi from our team of experienced and ICF-certified P&G Alumni Coaches and start discovering what’s possible for your leadership future. Don’t miss this chance to take a step toward becoming the best leader you can be. Secure your free spot on the interactive webinar today and join us on February 11th.
