Amplify Women Graduates First Class
November 10, 2022
The Amplify Women Program was developed within our WLI Committee whose focus is to promote women in the real estate industry. Working with Dr. Kelley Watts, a professional coach who led a workshop for WLI during Covid, the committee planned a 6-part training and coaching program for 20 women participants.
“[The program] was the highlight of my week! Being relatively new in the industry, it felt like a crash course in both professional development and networking. I left each session with a new connection or tool in my toolbox.”
The goal of the program aimed to help women become clear on their vision of success, utilize their unique gifts, and capitalize on opportunities available through connecting with women in the real estate. Dr. Watts, an esteemed psychologist, resilience coach, and Certified Dare to LeadTM Facilitator led the program.
In this workshop, participants developed the skills and confidence they need to achieve career advancement, attain leadership positions within the industry, and be active participants in the enhancement of women supporting women. After the program, ULI received supportive feedback including encouragement to keep the program going – many participants refer to themselves as “the first graduating class”!
Planning for the second class is underway with plans for the program to launch during the Fall 2024. Catch up on the latest news about the program by visiting our Amplify page.
The group gathers during the first session of the program.
