Leadership Skills for Women on the Rise
We provide essential skills for women leaders on the rise, through a unique program of comprehensive workshops, individualized coaching, interactions with highly successful leaders and the opportunity to build a strong network of peers from across sectors. CEOs consistently rank engaging, inspiring and growing the next generation of leaders as challenges that keep them awake at night. It’s not surprising — leading is difficult in the best of times, and we’re facing a continuing pandemic and economic uncertainty. Recruiting is expensive and too often unsuccessful. Turnover is at an all-time high, particularly with women at the executive level. Fortunately, your rising leaders may be already in-house. And with a modest investment, you can re-ignite their passion, build their leadership capacity, and shorten their learning curve. Salire promises to improve their readiness to tackle new challenges, increasing their chances of success and as the latest research indicates, provide an important incentive for them to stay.

Candidates
A candidate should be an executive who manages a team and occupies a mission-critical role for her organization and be nominated by the CEO or executive team member to whom she reports. The sponsor letter should describe the significant scope and/or scale of accountability of the candidate’s position, and why this individual is poised to move into a more senior role. If you are looking to enhance your leadership skills or have someone in your organization that you want to nominate as a candidate, we’d love to have a conversation with you.
