Power, Presence, and Purpose in the AI Era

Join us for an Inspiring Women's Leadership event - "Power, Presence, and Purpose in the AI Era"

As AI transforms industries, relationships, and the nature of work, leadership itself is being redefined. In this new era, women are called to lead from three enduring and urgently relevant dimensions: power, presence, and purpose.

Power today is less about title and more about influence, adaptability, and making impact-oriented decisions. In a world of automated systems, leaders must challenge legacy norms, ask bold questions, and steer change with strategic clarity.

Presence is how we show up in meetings, in moments of pressure, and in the digital world. AI can simulate decisions, but it can’t replicate the grounded presence, emotional intelligence, and human trust that women leaders bring.

Purpose is the compass. As productivity accelerates, women leaders are uniquely positioned to anchor organizations in purpose, ensuring that innovation drives business impact and supports long-term strategic goals.

Open to all, this session explores how to lead in the AI era – with the power to influence, the presence to inspire, and the purpose to create meaningful impact. It’s especially relevant for women across industries, and valuable for anyone seeking to lead or support inclusive workplaces.

Secure your spot now and be part of a movement that’s empowering women to lead with confidence and impact!
