We serve two distinct groups of Exceptional Women
-
High level, high potential women from multiple industries, whom we develop and mentor with customized guidance and executive coaching to propel them to sustainable success - one woman at a time
And
-
C level women who are considering transitioning to either another C level role, or a portfolio career of Board Service, Teaching and/or Philanthropy and surround them with a peer network of support and advice propelling them to holistic happiness
-
WE INFLUENCE CORPORATIONS TO IDENTIFY & INVEST IN TALENTED UPPER CAREER AND DIVERSE WOMEN
-
WE ATTRACT EXCEPTIONAL WOMEN AWARDEE CANDIDATES FROM MULTIPLE INDUSTRIES AND GENERATIONS
Marshall Goldsmith, #1 Global Executive Coach says:
Two decades ago, my friend and colleague, and one of the world's luminaries in Strategic Partnering, Larraine Segil and I co-wrote a book called "Partnering, The New Face Of Leadership". Today, EWA uses Larraine's partnering methodology to create a New Face for Mentoring. I am proud to serve on the EWA Advisory Board and to support the EWA mission.
