Transformative women leaders

Transformative women leaders

This session rounds out the first part of the course: this week we ask, who are the women leaders among us who are building new forms of cultural power? In a world where the various spaces we inhabit are desperately in need of new voices and ways of leadership, how are these transformative women leaders uprooting long-held, dominant ideas of power, growth, building, and what are they allowing to take root instead?
