If that’s leading, I’m in
‘Status quo’ leadership is too often turning women away from leading, at a time when women’s knowledge, expertise, and insights are needed more than ever.
Women Emerging is a global, non-profit movement with a mission to reframe leading so that more women choose to lead.
WE expeditions and the WE Hub are the centrepieces of Women Emerging.
WE expeditions are run for women who want to find their own approach to leading. They explore individually or in groups over a period of months (5 hours of exploring each month). This is mostly done online, though some expedition groups meet at different points.
The first expedition set out in 2022 to find an approach to leading that resonated with women. The expedition methodology they developed has been used on all expeditions since.
The WE Hub is a dynamic and ever-evolving free digital library of practical leadership intelligence generated by women. WE Hub will launch in April 2025.
‘‘I think of Women Emerging as a tiny piece of the huge jigsaw that is women's empowerment across the world. The really big pieces of the jigsaw cover things like health, rights, careers, mentors, laws. Our piece is simply focussed on expressing what it is to lead in a way that works for women and on pooling our knowledge for the benefit of each other. I hope that by adding this tiny piece we will serve the bigger pieces well and inspire many women to lead in a way that works for them.’’
