Empowering Women in Educational Leadership Institute
Kissimmee (Orlando), Florida | September 22–23, 2026
Commit to highly effective, courageous leadership by attending our Women in Education Institute.
This special event empowers aspiring and current female leaders to take the next step on their leadership journey. It’s also an ideal learning experience for those dedicated to championing change and supporting the career paths of women in education.
Over the course of three days, participants will hear high-impact talks and contribute to candid conversations around some of the most pressing topics for leaders today—from rejection and resistance to collaboration and work-life balance.
Attendees will also participate in learning labs carefully designed to unlock the leadership potential of female educators. During these sessions, experts share how to build trust, develop high-performing teams, lead results-oriented change, and make the greatest impact on student achievement.
