Aspiring Leadership developing the leader from within

Aspiring Leadership works with female youth and women to set a standard of leadership that embraces a holistic model; leadership that illuminates the whole person from anywhere one stands. Leadership is more than position, power and ego, it is the ability to imagine, reflect and generously contribute. We believe the foundation of leadership is personal mastery.

Personal mastery is founded on the principles of personal growth, self awareness, and personal responsibility. At the heart of personal mastery is a whole person, a person on a learning journey. Individuals who practice personal mastery experience a change in their way of being. They use both reason and intuition to create. They become more connected to everything around them, and as a result, they propel themselves and others to innovate and excel.

Personal mastery development asks two questions: who are you and what do you want? It is a way of being in the world that emanates from within - from within oneself and from where one stands within an organization, community and society.

The journey of leadership is unique for each person. Aspiring Leadership works with females: students, community members, educators, health professionals, corporate executives through one on one coaching and small and large group facilitation to aspire a new way of being.

It's time for us, as women, to gather together in deep reflection and joyous discovery of where we can most meaningfully offer our leadership. Together, we can celebrate what we've already accomplished and learned, and discover new ways to contribute. (Wheatley, 2008)
