What people are saying
“I am a massive fan of the Influential Women's course! What I loved most was being in a small group of women from all different industries and seeing how we all shared similar experiences in our working environment. It was a unique opportunity to be completely vulnerable and learn techniques to help me be more confident speaking in front of a crowd and more precise in my communication as a leader.”'
Loren Bradley, Executive Producer, Finch Company
“A fantastic course and very inspiring to see the growth of the women in this course. I had high expectations and yes, these expectations were exceeded. I will definitely recommend this course to my female colleagues.”'
Recruitment Officer, University of Sydney
"[I learnt] to present myself better and feel more confident at work and in general. I learnt a lot about my voice and body language – so will be using those new tips everyday."
British Consulate – Communications.
"This course is like no other. Often accomplished women are so technically proficient however, like me, may have deep seeded doubt about taking their space and believing that people want to hear what they have to say. This course will not just teach the practical elements of this but provide you with a safe space to experiment and practice new techniques without judgement. I’ve done many leadership courses and this is like no other."
Kate Mahony Executive General Manager – AFLW Football
