Elevate: The Leadership Academy for Women

For ambitious women who want to embody executive presence and lead with confidence, compassion and clout. 

 

Here at The Success Smith, we believe that women have natural traits that make us incredible leaders, but that sometimes hold us back. 'Elevate: The Leadership Academy for Women' has been created to tap into harness these very characteristics. 

Elevate Leadership

In this leadership framework uniquely designed for women, you’ll develop powerful skills such as leadership vision, influence, and breakthrough performance, whilst releasing emotional and energetic baggage that can keep you stuck.

Learn how to navigate the path to leadership - and thrive (rather than just surviving), when you get there.

Discover how to succeed without having to park your integrity or 'play the game'.

Address your mindset blocks - from fear of becoming visible, to imposter syndrome, to people pleasing, to taking on too much.

Learn transformative skills - visionary leadership, emotion regulation, personal effectiveness, the language of the top table and how to create breakthrough personal and team performance.

Harness your best energy to create powerful and magnetic influence, unshakeable confidence and executive presence, for credibility and clout at the most senior levels of business.

Successful female leaders know that mindset is absolutely key to success. Whether coping with failure, creating personal effectiveness, or inspiring high performance in others, a ‘success mindset’ is not just beneficial, but essential. 

This programme is ideal for you if you are...

- An ambitious female leader.
- Currently in a Manager, Senior Manager, ‘Head of’ or Director position.
- Managing a team or another person.

- Already successful and know you’re capable of more but feel held back by fear, imposter syndrome or overwhelm. 
- Want to step up and embody inspirational and effective leadership, but worry you will struggle with pressure and politics or that you don’t know enough to be credible at the most senior levels of business.
- Believe you can’t be your authentic self and still be effective at the ‘top table’.

Vicky W_Executive Coaching_Testimonial

Listen to Vicky's experience of working with Dr Victoria...

"I felt that I had to prove I was good enough for the role I was in... I questioned the value I brought to the role I did... the work we did together was phenomenal... I've realised I am worthy... created boundaries, realised I can make choices and have created the element of control...

The confidence (from coaching) has made me gain, is worth the investment... don't underestimate the impact and power of it!

If I had know the impact it would've made on me, I would have done it so much sooner in my career."

Yes, whichever way you decide to commit to the programme, you'll have access to a community of fellow senior professional women also on the journey to Elevate.

We'd recommend 6 months minimum for completion of the curriculum. This length of time will allow you to thoroughly work through the modules. However, as the curriculum is self led, it's possible to complete the programme within a couple of months if you wish.

If you've signed up to the Elevate: Yourself option, you'll automatically have access to a community of fellow senior professional women also on the journey to Elevate.

The tools you’ll learn in the modules can have an instant effect on the way you think and feel in the moment.

But of course, external results in your professional environment will realistically take time.

It’s recommended to practice the tools daily and consistently for removing life-long blocks and creating permanent transformation in yourself and your professional career.

Whilst many of my clients have seen pay increases, promotions and positive career changes within months and even weeks of working together, I can’t guarantee absolute results.

This programme provides you with the essential mindset tools and practices to create the optimal conditions for success. Taking action and implementing strategies in the external world, along with this will determine your specific results and the speed in which you’ll achieve them.

Yes. There's an option to purchase a Certificate of Completion. Please note that you have to stay in the programme for at least 6 months and provide evidence of completing all of the self reflection exercises before it can be issued.
