You’ve Got The Power: Newly Enhanced 9 Leadership Power Tools Course Arrives March 8 Because Now Is Best Time For You
Because you are worth it. Because now is the time to rethink your life, your work, your purpose and take the action to shape the future you intention.
What the Great Reshuffle informed by the global pandemic has done to physical and remote workplace cultures, it has also done to you.
That is why it is your best option to participate in Take The Lead’s revamped 9 Leadership Power Tools To Advance Your Career course launching on March 8, International Women’s Day, an auspicious day for you and all women across the globe.
“We have this crucial opportunity we will never have again,” says Gloria Feldt, co-founder and president of Take The Lead. “The disruption of the pandemic is forcing everybody to rethink their own career path, forcing organizations to rethink culture, benefits, flexibility and so many things women —and men—have been saying they need to happen,” says Feldt, author of the new book, Intentioning: Sex, Power, Pandemics, and How Women Will Take The Lead for (Everyone's) Good, who updated and reworked the highly successful course.

This is the perfect time for millions like you rethinking and reimagining your work lives. Feedback from those who have taken the 9 Leadership Power Tools course is enthusiastic.
“I have been very focused on the short-term for about a year and a half just due to being very busy with clients, new projects, etc., but it has caused me to neglect the big picture. This has taught me to take a step back so I can focus on the more strategic goals and how I can use my power tools more effectively personally and professionally,” reports Elyse Flynn Meyer, President and Founder, Prism Global Marketing Solutions.
Take The Lead’s revitalized course has 13 modules, all of it online, and you can complete it over 12 weeks or even much faster. The content is available for one year, Feldt explains.
The course has three separate levels of engagement. The first level is The Career Boost; this online self-directed course packs great value.
The second level is The Accelerator; it is the course plus four monthly virtual masterminds with Gloria Feldt. The third level is The VIP, the course, plus masterminds plus small group coaching. Discounts will be available for those who register with accountability partners and for companies that wish to send more than one woman to the course. One of the most exciting new elements of the course is the addition of accountability partners.

“All materials are updated to reflect the time we are in,” says Feldt. “There are new exercises and new resources in each module” that take about two hours to complete each week.
“From this course, I can now pinpoint exactly where I am in the continuum of embracing and growing my power, leadership and professional growth through these power tools. It broke it down for me and I could reflect on each one and evaluate where I have been, where I am and how I'm using these to get to where I want to be,” says Lisette Flores, Attorney and Activist.
Designed for the mid-career individual across all industries and niches around the globe, Feldt says the ideal candidate is someone “who values diversity, equity and inclusion in gender parity. The ideal participant is a hard-working, driven woman with no shortage of motivation who’s tired of hiding her gifts and being passed up for promotions.”

Megan Stark, a technical sergeant in the U.S. Army, found the course enormously practical and helpful. Stark writes, “I am one of three women leaders in a 40-person squadron which is made up of men. I'm tearing up writing this only because I think I have been slightly jaded by the masculinity of the military at times (not to be accusatory of it, but that is its typical nature) and I hadn't realized it (I've been in the military for 15 years). It woke me up to the fact that I am more than capable and deserving of promotions and higher level positions based on my performance, and that my glass ceiling (even working in the middle of nowhere Wyoming) can be broken.”
Winter-Esther Okoth, Biomedical Researcher, reports, “All the power tools tackled in this program are so essential and great ingredients to Women in Leadership. I have also started implementing on my Personal Strategic Leadership Action Plan; every step counts. I interacted with and made friendships with very inspiring and strong women leaders whose stories inspire me so much.”
And checking in from across the ocean, Leah Wilson, VP, National Czech & Slovak Museum & Library, who subsequently became Executive Director of the Kidzeum of Health and Science, reports, “I didn’t know how much I needed this program until I completed it. It was an experience that went way beyond professional development and resonated to my very core.”
Feldt says it is this global cross-connection of women in a myriad of professions that makes it unique. “In this vibrant community, women are able to connect with other women across industries. It is typically my aim for women usually 30 to 55 years old, mid-career when they have so many questions about their next move and how to keep themselves, fresh, excited and energetic.”
Anne Parmely, senior vice president at Pearson, offers a strong endorsement for the course. “The Take the Lead programs provide a safe and supportive environment for women climbing in their careers to have thoughtful and productive conversations about where they are and where they are going in their leadership journeys. You walk away with a plan and intent to take yourself to the next level, professionally and personally.”
It is not haphazard, but deliberate and intentional as a powerful trifecta of elements comprise the newly redesigned 9 Leadership Power Tools course. The first is to redefine the Power Paradigm.
“It frees your brain to open up to realize you already have this capability,” Feldt explains.
The second powerful component of the course is the very specific, actionable 9 power tools. “These are bite-sized, snackable leadership power tools that are skills and techniques to help you thrive in the world knowing you can make changes,” Feldt says. “You have to know how to play the game in order to change it. With these tools, people are able to make their world what they want it to be.”
The third key element, that is the most important, is that participants will create for themselves an accountable road map, a Strategic Leadership Action Plan on how to achieve their goals and reach their intended outcomes. The addition of accountability partners is what makes the action plans doable, and an integral component of the revamped course.

“This is your big pay off,” Feldt says. “Very often people say they get inspired, but do not know how to make it actionable. This will give you the knowledge and the tools to achieve those outcomes.”
According to Gallup, that has begun calling the Great Resignation movement in workplaces and careers the Great Discontent, “48% of America's working population is actively job searching or watching for opportunities. Businesses are facing a staggeringly high quit rate—3.6 million Americans resigned in May 2021 alone—and a record-high number of unfilled positions.”
Saurav Atri, Gallup Regional Leadership Coach and Workplace Consultant, says, “So 60.2% of the workforce or the population of the U.S. who can work were working. The rest weren't. And not only that, here's what the latest data is—that's when it started, but today, in the U.S. particularly, what we're seeing is that there are jobs, and there are lots of jobs: 10.6 million.”
ABC reports, “According to the Financy Women's Index report for December 2021, female part-time employment increased in 15 out of 19 sectors in 2021, whereas male part-time employment fell in 17 of those sectors. According to the Financy Women's Index, the gap between men's and women's earnings widened in the December quarter.”
Financy founder Bianca Hartge-Hazelman tells ABC, "We, as a society, continue to undervalue the face-to-face services of these predominantly female workforces, many of whom are on the front line of the COVID-19 crisis."
Feldt says the revamped course directly addresses these shifts in the global workplace and that the positive outcomes for those taking the course are universal. When a participant completes the course, Feldt says, there is a noticeable shift in her career, but also in her life.
“What becomes clear to her is the value she brings, the power she has in her hands, within her. She gets a new definition of power that frees her to basically claim what her highest and best intentions are and she has the tools and the plan to make that happen.”
The bottom line is after taking this course, “You have much more control of your time and your life. The real trick is now you get everything ready to go.”
