The Purpose, Power, Presence for Middle Managers™ program is based on 40 years of Susan Colantuono and Leading Women's proprietary research into women's career de-railers. Susan is internationally known as an expert in women's leadership development, gender dynamics and hidden gender bias. Susan’s TED talk on Closing the Leadership Gender Gap has been viewed by over 3.5 million, translated into 23 languages and reviewed by Fortune, The Washington Post and The Guardian as one of the five videos that will change the way you work.

Purpose, Power, Presence for Middle Managers™

This two-day workshop positions middle managers for senior management roles, viewed as both business and people leaders. Essential for moving into higher level positions, this workshop ensures participants are seen to have the business savvy needed for advancement.

  • Putting an emphasis on excellence not perfection
