THE LEADERSHIP ASCENT PROGRAM FEATURED IN HR.COM'S LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE PUBLICATION!
The Leadership Ascent Program won First Place in the Non-Profit Organizations category for the 2014 Global Leadership 500 Excellence Award. We were proud to place again in 2015.
Leadership Ascent for Women, previously known as The Women'sVision Leadership Institute, began in 1997 when a small group of senior corporate women met to discuss the legacy of their experiences. The women wanted to give back: to help others to break through the glass ceiling, to break glass walls—to make it easier for those women who came behind this founding group to have a more fulfilling corporate experience.
Today, Leadership Ascent Programs offers multiple learnings for all stages of a career from comprehensive and experiential mangement training to one-day workshops developing a specific skill. The Leadership Ascent is the flagship year-long leadership training and development experience/program for mid-management to C-Suite corporate executive men and women that would prepare them to take the next step in their careers; for themselves and for their organizations. We are proud to have helped over 400 men and women take charge or their careers, their development and his or her personal ownership of their organizations' goals. Our alumnae have a promotion rate of over 75% and we are the proud recipient of the HR.com award for Excellence in Leadership Education.
