Why attend the 2025 WLI Women’s Leadership Retreat?
Retreat has always been a part of advancement. It is simply taking a step back. All leaders need to do this in order to be effective. Thoughtful leaders take the time to think, regroup, gain perspective and make important decisions.
Reconnect with other women leaders, build your network, share resources. One of the biggest bonuses of being part of the WLI community is connecting with other women leaders to share perspectives, stories and strategies.
Revisit your core leadership values and strengths. There is more need for human-centric, values-based leadership in our organizations and communities than ever before. Reconnect with what is most important to you as a leader.
Refocus on your goals. Things are changing, and we change too. Where are you looking next? What new challenges and opportunities are you facing, and how can you approach them in the most effective way?
Recharge your energy and passion. Sometimes we need to step away from the day to day in order to tap back into our motivation and drive.
Redefine your vision for the future. Spend some time thinking about where you see yourself next, in your career and life.
At WLI you always walk away with expanded thinking, stronger connections and new leadership skills and tools.
The Outcomes
Gain greater clarity on your leadership priorities.
We all get caught in the weeds, and sometimes that’s necessary to keep up with the pace and demands of the job, and of life. But effectiveness comes from the ability to focus on key priorities and then plan our time and energy accordingly.
Refocus on your goals and vision.
If you don’t know where you’re going, and why, it’s really hard to know if you’re being successful. Refocus on your key goals for your career and life for the near term, and your vision for the long term.
Build a powerful network of other women leaders.
The value of a peer network cannot be overstated. For women leaders, especially those in traditionally male dominated industries or spaces, these networks are even more important. A network is essential for gaining perspective, regrouping during challenging times, and celebrating growth and achievement.
Recharge your batteries.
Leadership can be a really hard job and all of us need the opportunity to step back and reconnect to our motivation and drive, tap into new sources of energy and feel excited again for the important work we are doing.
Develop new leadership skills.
The changing workforce is creating new demands on leaders in every industry. Many skills that used to be a “nice” to have, are now a need to have. To be the human-centric, values-based leaders the workplace needs requires learning and practicing new skillsets.
What will we do?
As always, our learning methodology will be experiential, with a mix of activities, group conversations, peer coaching, workshops, outdoor activities, craft-based learning, multimedia and more.
Join Us!
Spots are limited. Don’t miss this opportunity to reconnect, reflect, and step forward with clarity and purpose.
