There are current indicators that many women in the workplaces are exhausted and burned out, as they are experiencing higher levels of stress, anxiety, relationship breakdown, insomnia, depression, and emotional and physical fatigue. As women attempt to bring their full selves to their diverse roles, the realities of their professional and personal struggles often are unspoken, and their professional and personal voices are often minimized or muted. In this presentation, Dr. K amplifies the need for voice power, while inspiring women to remember and to reconnect to their “whole voice” when navigating professionally and personally. Grounded in her innovative research on women’s voices and the creation of The Voice Positioning System (VPS)™ framework, Dr. K will provide insights and strategies for daring to own the power of voice to be seen, heard, and valued.
