Empowering Women Today
for an Equitable Tomorrow

Canada's #1 Women's Leadership Conference

Women all over the world are no longer accepting the status quo. They’re rising up, breaking through, pushing the boundaries, and carving their own paths.

From glass ceilings and inequality, to 'leaning in' and work-life balance, women leaders of today face numerous challenges. As they move up the corporate ladder and take on increased responsibilities, having the right tools and insights in order to pivot in an evolving corporate landscape has never been more essential.

In a world of information overload, The Art of Leadership Women focuses on the topics and trends most critical to leaders. This unique one-day conference features a riveting collection of world leaders, business icons, academics, and bestselling authors who inspire action.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn improved ways of leveraging their value, elevating their skills, and developing the strategies required to take their leadership and their organizations to the next level. This conference is not just for women, but for anyone who wants to champion change on behalf of women.

I love The Art of Leadership Women because of the palpable energy in the room. You can’t substitute what you can get physically from other people in connections, motivation, and self-belief than you can when you’re just together. It’s a powerful thing.
