The World's Principled Leaders Series: David Marquet

Panel Discussion/Presentation | Focused Friday

Aboard the USS Sante Fe, Captain David Marquet realized that the traditional leader-follower environment meant his crew would do anything he said—even if it was wrong. That could be catastrophic. He decided to try Intent-Based Leadership, and he began treating his crew as leaders, not followers, and giving control, not taking control. Santa Fe went from “worst to first,” achieving the highest recognition in the Navy. When Stephen R. Covey spent time aboard the Santa Fe, he referred to it as the most empowering organization he’d ever seen. Hear how Captain Marquet continues to build environments where everyone is a leader.

When Women Don’t Speak: What It Takes for Women To be Heard

Panel Discussion/Presentation

The Utah Women & Leadership Project invites you to join us for our third Spring Women’s Leadership Forum.

Drs. Jessica Preece and Christopher Karpowitz will present their groundbreaking research that shows what it takes for a woman to truly be heard. After years spent analyzing lab and real-life settings to determine what it takes for a woman to truly be perceived as competent and influential, they discovered that for women, having a seat at the table does not mean having a voice. They will discuss their research that has found that women are systematically seen as less authoritative and that their influence is systematically lower. And when they speak up, they are interrupted and not listened to as much.

So, what can be done? This engaging presentation will provide tips and strategies that can help all women understand what it takes for women to be heard and viewed as influential. Women of all ages (and those who influence them) are welcome to listen, learn, and ask questions in the chat! Register now!
