    IRRESISTIBLE TAKE THE LEAD EVENTS COMING UP

    JOIN US FOR THE INAUGURAL
    TAKE THE LEAD DAY

    NOVEMBER 14, 2017

    Do you remember where you were last November? What you were feeling? Imagine coming together with women everywhere and channeling all of our energy into one day of global action for women's leadership.

    This is Take The Lead Day 2017.
    On November 14th, 2017 champions of women from across the world will come together for
    a global day of action focused on one goal: leadership parity by 2025.


    As our friend and partner in parity, Gloria Steinem, has boldly said, "The future depends entirely on what each of us does every day. A movement is only people moving."

    We are that movement.
    We are Powerful because we are unified by a common goal to achieve gender leadership parity by 2025 - 70 years ahead of the trajectory. We are Powerful because we stand together in action every day for our daughters, our sisters, our mothers, our friends and ourselves.

    Visit our Take The Lead Day website to sign up for virtual events like Empowering Women to Lead: What Does it Take to Re-wire Your Mindset for Leadership and Success? Or find a gathering in your city such as the half-day Powertopia Symposium in New York City and pledge your commitment to leadership parity by signing up for updates here.
