INBOUND 2016: Alexia Vernon "The Missing Ingredient in Women's Leadership"

There is no shortage of books, professional associations, mentoring programs or conferences discussing women’s leadership. The need for organizations to dismantle institutionalized unconscious gender bias, why so many high performing women suffer from an “imposter complex”, and the disproportionate amount of men in senior leadership positions across industries and sectors… these important topics are constantly in the spotlight. Yet even the most well intentioned women’s leadership champions frequently overlook one key issue – HOW to empower rising female leaders to develop the mindset, skill set and resilience to lead confidently (and competently). Branded a “Moxie Maven” by the White House Office of Public Engagement for her unique and effective approach to developing female leaders, and having shared her experiential approaches to women’s leadership with the UN Commission on the Status of Women, Alexia Vernon is a leading expert on this important topic.
