Dedicated To Enabling More Brave & Bold
Women To Smash Through Ceilings
Highlights from Leading Ladies Of… story (Produced in 2022, we have grown significantly since then!)
At Leading Ladies Of… our mission is to accelerate the journey to gender parity, through the promotion and retention of women leaders; powered by connection, collaboration, and career-catalyzing skills. Promoting REAL CHANGE.
Through our virtual platform, events and mobile app we create communities in which people collectively use their power to access brave hearts and bold voices to create big change.
Why do we do this? Many industries attract women but struggle to retain them – especially as they climb the ladder – perpetuating the problem of lack of visible role models. A sense of belonging and feeling heard is crucial for retention. The approach of Leading Ladies Of… is to create cross-company communities of support by creating events and programs that embrace courage, collaboration and compassion.

Testimonials
Fiona and Leading Ladies Of… Aerospace & Defense has had a tremendous impact on our organization’s Leading Ladies of Applied Composites group. We have had the ability to foster, develop and grow relationships across our businesses. Fiona’s programs have helped bring us together to learn and utilize leadership tools & tactics to strengthen our footprint and voice. We have had several ladies who have personally reached out and talked about how Fiona taught them to be empowered and go after their goals
We’ve followed the tremendous progress of Leading Ladies Of… Aerospace since the first Summit in 2020. This is a much-needed community to encourage more women to join and stay in aerospace, and I’m so grateful for their inclusiveness of male allies. We joined as a summit sponsor in 2021 and have recently become annual sponsors of this important organization.

A Leading Lady is…
Leading Ladies come from all walks of life, with diverse backgrounds, cultures, experiences, and ages. What sets a Leading Lady apart is her resiliency and commitment to challenging the status quo. Despite any obstacles she may face, a Leading Lady picks herself back up, dusts off her heels, and continues the march towards gender balance.
A Leading Lady is somebody who is committed to changing the future for all women in traditionally male-dominated professions. An influencer who actively creates a positive impact on others. A role model for what it means to have compassion and courage in the workplace.
