Why WomenLead? Despite earning 60 percent of college degrees today, women remain severely underrepresented in leadership positions across corporate, STEM, arts, nonprofit, and government settings. The WomenLead Professional Signature Experience Program seeks to close this pervasive gender equity gap by empowering young women to aim for and achieve leadership roles.
Launched in 2015, WomenLead is a university-wide program that provides students with the knowledge, skills, and experiences in and out of the classroom to achieve success. The program has been recognized for its innovation, excellence, and student success during its first five years. WomenLead’s goal is to unlock the full potential of our highly talented and diverse students and to place them on a trajectory for lifelong success.
WomenLead’s impact at Georgia State can be seen through the students, faculty, and community leaders we’ve brought together. Our Impact Report showcases the program’s innovation, excellence, and student success during its first five years.
