Leading with Purpose & Confidence – Core BTS EmpowHER Event

The EmpowHER community at Core BTS is doing remarkable work fostering leadership and empowerment among women. I was honored to lead a discussion on the unique challenges women face in leadership, the power of self-acceptance, and how embracing growth can elevate both personal and professional success.

Core BTS also shared their thoughts on the event:
“Last week, EmpowHER at Core BTS welcomed bestselling author, Monique de Maio, MBA, for an hour-long workshop, based on her bestselling book, The 7 Secrets to Creating a Life You Love: A Practical Guide for Women in Leadership.

Monique, a trailblazing entrepreneur and mentor with extensive experience in the tech industry and empowering women leaders, talked with our team members offering real strategies to tackle the challenges women often face at work and in their personal lives.

Thanks to everyone who participated, and special thanks to Monique for this hour of EmpowHERment!”

Key Takeaways from the Event

🔹 Authenticity is Your Greatest Strength – True leadership starts with embracing who you are. We explored ways to bring authenticity into leadership roles and use it to foster trust, innovation, and impact.

🔹 Purpose-Driven Leadership – Leading with purpose creates alignment, motivation, and stronger decision-making. We discussed how to identify personal values and integrate them into professional leadership journeys.

🔹 Confidence Through Connection – Leadership isn’t a solo journey. Building a strong network of mentors, peers, and allies helps women navigate challenges and unlock new opportunities.
