Expertise alone doesn’t define your influence—it’s also about how you show up, how others perceive you, and where you direct your energy. Many women hesitate to claim their influence, assuming their knowledge should speak for itself. But trust, visibility, and strategic positioning are just as essential in shaping leadership and impact.
At the same time, not all influence is productive. Overcommitting and saying yes too often can dilute your impact and drain your energy. Influence isn’t just about expanding—it’s about focusing on where it truly matters.
This session is about intentionally owning your influence—so you can lead boldly, increase your presence, and make a meaningful impact without overextending yourself.
What We'll Explore Together:
🔹 The Sources of Influence – Influence isn’t just about expertise. We’ll explore the five key sources of power and how they shape your leadership.
🔹 Why This Matters for You – Many women in science over-rely on expertise while overlooking the power of presence, relationships, and boundaries in expanding their impact.
🔹 Practical Application – Assess where you’re currently using (or underusing) your influence, identify where you’re overcommitting, and learn how to set strategic boundaries so your influence remains strong—without burnout.
By the end of this session, you’ll have a clearer understanding of your influence and a strategy to expand it with confidence and intention—without overextending yourself.
