Ask all your questions regarding marketing, strategy, growth, leadership and sales and get the answers you are looking for. Have four of your regular "cups of coffee" in one afternoon.

Talk to the best in the business - TheNextWomen100, investors, Chief-level executives - and they will happily help you find the right solution to the problem that's holding you back. Next to the 1 on 1's you'll have the change to pitch in front of peers and experts and network with a group of ambitious women.

During Coaching Hours you sign up for a 30 minute conversation with the expert of your choice. We always aim to have you speak to at least 1 coach per session.

Topic | LEADERSHIP

According to the dictionary, a leader is someone with commanding authority or influence. However, that definition falls short. The leadership expert Peter DeLisle is more specific: “Leadership is the ability to influence other people, with or without authority.” It is very easy to get others to obey your orders when you are their superior in the chain of command; the key lies with those who, even without pulling rank, can get others to share their vision and follow them. Think of a soccer or basketball player who, despite not being captain, is able to rally his teammates and make them follow his lead.

The ability to influence has three elements. The first is awareness, i.e., understanding that every action has an impact. The second is ability, in terms of communication, conflict resolution, and decision-making. Finally, the third is a commitment to your ideas, which means making decisions that may not always please everyone and dealing with the consequences.

Vision, personality, honesty, persistence, hard work… So many qualities are attributed to leaders it can sometimes be difficult to identify with them all. However, the ability to influence others is clearly a leadership skill.
