For Organizations
The most profitable, adaptable and forward thinking organizations share a common trait: they’ve developed a culture in which women are truly valued and can thrive. They actively recruit, develop and promote women alongside men at every level of leadership.
They know that Men + Women = Better Businesstm.
The Challenge
Women’s leadership programs and diversity and inclusion training abound yet gender-equity at all levels of leadership remains a challenge. An intentional culture change driven from the C-suite combined with leadership development and coaching for leaders at all levels focuses your organization to leverage brain-based differences for greater innovation, decision-making and financial success.

Client testimonials provided from program Leslie Grygiel created for Capital One in-house.
“This program provided me with a platform, individual mentorship and coaching on my personal growth, access to resources and experiences that help shape me as a leader. ‘Learning how to be powerful enough to be heard, but attractive (likability) enough to be followed’ is a mantra I’ve learned and try to practice every day. The challenge of overcoming gender biases is a real thing in the corporate world. Having a program that advocates a support system, fosters a safe environment, and provides tools, networks, and resources to overcome barriers is critical in developing future leaders.”
Annie Wong, Director, Capital One
“The program allowed me to focus on my leadership development, which I had never been given the opportunity to do. It allowed me to have a venue in which to ask questions of women (and men!) when I had never had to the right forum to do so. I learned so much about leading, developing and growing! Participating in this program gave me appreciation for my company and my management that they valued me as an employee and were vested in my continued growth. It is a great way to invest in the next women leaders in an organization and will likely give them a greater connection to their organization. Leslie’s personal experience and calm demeanor allows her to identify with others and their experiences and enables her to give real world perspectives to the discussions.”
