Leading isn’t about titles or ranks — it’s a verb. It’s action. It’s about shaping a world where more women can say, “If that’s leading, I’m in.”

Women Emerging is a global, non-profit movement on a mission to reframe leading – so more women choose to lead.
Our first expedition in 2022 set out to find an approach to leading that truly resonates with women. The finding? The act of leading is individual and personal. Though there are common elements, they are not common to all. So rather than developing an approach, they developed a ‘map’, which is now used as the expedition methodology called the 4Es.

Women Emerging invites women to begin their own expeditions and find an approach to leading that resonates with them.
Impact statistics are from the 2025/26 Impact Report. Read the full report
We run expeditions because expeditions are brave, bold, ambitious, inspiring, raw, and unpredictable. Our expeditions use our unique, well-tested methodology, which gives them a clear shape. As a result, each Explorer finds her own approach to leading.
Immersion Expeditions bring women together to reflect on their approach to leading and learn alongside one another.
Most Immersion Expeditions take place online, though some include in-person gatherings. Explorers spend approximately four hours on expedition activities each month.
These expeditions are for women who value collaboration and learning with others as they consider what leading means to them.
Accelerator Expeditions offer a focused opportunity for women to develop a language for their own leading. Through the 4Es, Explorers can recognise how much they are already leading, build confidence, question limiting assumptions and develop cultural intelligence while connecting with women across the world.
