HOW ARE YOU WORKING TO RETAIN AND

ADVANCE WOMEN LEADERS?Over the past twenty years, we’ve worked with thousands of women leadersempowering them to scale the hurdles to success and realize their full poten al.

Every step of the way, these women leaders have inspired us with their drive, their tenacity, their passion, and their willingness to never stop learning.

Women who a ended the fi rst Women in Leadership Ins tute™ (WIL) in 1999 as emerging leaders are now seasoned pros at the top of their fi elds. They lead teams and organiza ons that make a tremendous impact and they all started where your women leaders are right now: poised to realize their full poten al.

Join hundreds of top organiza ons from every industry who turn to Linkage to develop and accelerate the advancement of their female leaders.

WIL is a four-day immersive learning experience like no other—leveraging six keynote sessions, four skill-building deep dives, eight hours of small-group peer learning teams, and strategic networking opportuni es—all designed to accelerate personal and professional growth.

This year, we’re celebra ng the 20th anniversary of WIL. This is big—and I want your leaders to be with us for this moment.

Look within your organiza on, iden fy your top performing, high poten al female leaders, and nominate them to join 900+ women from around the globe in this proven and transforma onal learning experience.
