The Female Leadership Wheel™ is a visual tool which identifies areas of strength and areas which need attention to foster leadership development. As a starting point for coaching, The Female Leadership Wheel™ provides both reflection and direction for our process, helping coachees to rapidly zoom in on their priorities and goals. Through my research and coaching experience, 8 key areas of focus have emerged for successful female leadership:
Mobilizing others
Strategic networking
Building your reputation
Mapping your career ambitions
Self-care practice
Communication Skills
Negotiating skills
Aligning leadership values
To generate their personal Female Leadership Wheel™, coachees are invited to reflect on a series of descriptive statements related to each area. Next, they plot their perceptions of both the importance and their competence in each of the 8 areas on the wheel grid. The next step is to literally ‘connect the dots.’ The resulting shape reveals where there is alignment and where there are gaps in their leadership development, relevant to their own professional context.
