Summary:

Based on her bestselling book, The Confidence Effect, Grace's presentation cites the research and statistics around women's lack of professional advancement and what may be holding them back. She then moves beyond the data to focus on the steps that women can take to connect their competence to their confidence and build a strategy for their own success. With a humorous approach, Grace will take the audience through the high points of The Confidence Effect, including: * How to clean off the lens we're using * Understanding diverse leadership role models * What makes competence the foundation for success * What confidence is and how to achieve it * Moving toward success - Grace Killelea is the CEO and founder of the GKC Group, a firm offering leadership development programs to high potential women and men.
