This year, everything has changed: With COVID-19 impacting everything about the way we live our lives, we knew that our Women in Leadership Institute™ (WIL) needed to meet the unique needs of women, right now. That’s why, in 2020, WIL is going 100% virtual for the first time in its 21-year history. And, with brand-new keynote-only packages, the Institute is more accessible and affordable than ever.

Leadership development designed specifically for women is one way to achieve this. At Linkage’s Women in Leadership Institute™ (WIL), specialized programming for women identifies the need to balance work with everything else as a key hurdle to advancement, and as an attainable goal with the right skills and perspective.
