SUMMARY:DC Baltimore: Why Women Hold Back and How to Be Heard
DESCRIPTION:Executive Presence: Why Women Hold Back and How to Be Heard \nA live masterclass focused on the deeper root of communication challenges in leadership: conditioning\, identity\, and self-perception. \nMany high-performing women are not lacking capability or insight—they are navigating internal patterns shaped by expectations around likability\, approval\, and authority. These patterns often show up as hesitation\, overthinking\, or softening communication in critical moments\, ultimately limiting influence and visibility. \nThis session moves beyond surface-level communication strategies to address the internal dynamics that impact how women show up\, speak\, and lead in real time. Participants will learn how to shift from waiting to feel “ready” to becoming willing to speak with clarity and grounded authority—even in moments of uncertainty. \nKey takeaways include how to: \n· Recognize the internal patterns that drive hesitation and respond with intention in the moment \n· Communicate clearly without over-preparing or over-explaining \n· Trust their thinking and contribute before ideas feel “perfect” \n· Strengthen executive presence by shifting from seeking approval to owning authority \nSpeaker\nYann Dang is an executive leadership coach\, TEDx speaker\, and former Global Finance executive who specializes in helping high-achieving women be heard and lead with authority in high-stakes environments. She combines executive strategy\, neuroscience\, and emotional intelligence to shift how women show up—not by performing confidence\, but by embodying it. \nHer work equips women to navigate power dynamics\, communicate with clarity\, and build influence without overworking or second-guessing themselves. Yann’s approach deeply aligns with WICT’s mission to advance women through leadership development and connection—helping them not just grow in their careers\, but lead in a way that changes the room. \nYann Dang\, Leadership & Life Coach \nTEDx Speaker: The Power of Anger in Leadership \nPodcast Ranked Top 2% Globally: The Balanced Leader \nWebsite: aspire-coaching.co \nEmail: connect@aspire-coaching.co \nLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/yanndang/ \nInstagram: @aspirecoaching_yann

SUMMARY:DC Baltimore: From AI Curious to AI Confident
DESCRIPTION:The foundations that change everything. \nWe’re starting with the basics — but not the boring kind. You’ll finally understand what AI actually is (and isn’t)\, why ChatGPT sometimes sounds brilliant and sometimes makes things up\, and how to write prompts that pull gold instead of fluff. You’ll leave with: \n· The 5-step framework for a perfect prompt (Role\, Goal\, Context\, Constraints + a bonus) \n· How to make AI “talk” like anyone — a senior exec\, a recruiter\, even Matthew McConaughey 😉 \n· The AI Continuum: where you fall today and how to move forward \n· Why women especially need to lean into AI right now — and what’s at stake if we don’t \nPerfect for beginners — and packed with shortcuts even regular users wish they knew. \n

SUMMARY:Global: 10x Mindset
DESCRIPTION:10X is not a number\, it is a mindset shift. When leaders try to 2X results\, the instinct is often to push harder\, add more hours and apply more pressure\, which creates complexity\, fatigue and diminishing returns. 10X thinking works differently. It helps you identify the small set of actions\, habits and relationships that already create the greatest value\, then intentionally amplify those while redesigning or releasing what no longer serves the system. \nParticipants learn: \n\nHow to map your current workload into high return\, medium return and low return buckets\nHow to choose one to three leverage moves that create outsized impact in the next 30 days\nHow to build a stop doing list\, a delegate list and a simplify list you can use immediately\nHow to translate 10X thinking into a weekly plan with protected focus time and clear boundaries

SUMMARY:DC Baltimore: Build Your Own Bot
DESCRIPTION:Stop using a generic assistant. Build a digital twin. \nMost people use AI like a stranger off the street — and get stranger-off-the-street results. In this session\, you’ll build your own custom GPT: a digital twin trained on your voice\, your standards\, and your goals. Think of it as cloning your brain so the next time you need a LinkedIn post\, a coaching prompt\, or a tough conversation prepped — your bot delivers it in seconds\, sounding exactly like you. You’ll learn: \n· The difference between a generic assistant and a true digital twin (and why it matters) \n· The 8-part PERSONA framework: Role\, Audience\, Goals\, Inputs\, Outputs\, Boundaries\, Evidence\, Finish Standards \n· Where bots go off the rails — and how to set guardrails so yours doesn’t \n· A live build-along: we’ll create one together\, step by step \nWalk in with an idea. Walk out with a working bot. ⚡ \n

SUMMARY:DC Baltimore: Build Your Own Board of Directors
DESCRIPTION:Your personal advisory team — on demand\, 24/7. \nThe difference between good leaders and transformative ones? Transformative leaders don’t just rely on their team — they multiply their impact with AI as a strategic thought partner. In this session\, you’ll build a personal Board of Directors made up of the voices you most want in your corner — Oprah\, Brené Brown\, Sara Blakely\, Mark Cuban\, Michelle Obama\, whoever inspires you. Then you’ll train AI to channel them when you need clarity\, courage\, or a kick in the pants. You’ll learn: \n· The 10 board “seats” every powerful woman should fill (Finance\, Storytelling\, Courage\, Strategy\, Innovation + more) \n· How to create realistic biographies and a “job description” that keeps your board aligned \n· How to upload it all into a custom GPT so your Board is one click away — forever \n· Real prompts for when you’re stuck\, scared\, or scaling \nPrework: Bring 9–12 names of people (alive or not) who inspire you \n
