The Future of Your Leadership Team Starts Here

You Already Know the Value of Developing Your Team. Now It’s Time to Make It a Strategic Advantage.

#GirlsClub is a 5-month, results-driven leadership program built for high-potential women in sales and revenue roles. It’s not just about development—it’s about business impact.

For companies focused on performance, retention, and building a leadership bench internally, the program delivers:

  • Faster promotions from within, reducing the high cost of external hiring
  • Immediate application of leadership skills through real-time manager collaboration
  • Improved retention by investing in your top performers before they leave
  • Scalable impact with multi-year, multi-seat options that align to succession planning

Less than 30% of companies have a formal leadership development path.

Are you building your pipeline—or risking your talent walking out the door?

What Companies Gain by Investing in #GirlsClub

Power Results


Don’t just talk about leadership potential, activate it. More than 70% of rep-level participants are promoted before the program ends. That’s real movement on your leadership bench saving your organization time and money recruiting for leadership positions.

Manager Enablement

Every #GirlsClub Protégé has the opportunity to learn alongside an internal champion or advocate – often their direct manager or a senior leader in your organization. This isn’t just mentorship – it’s active reinforcement of new skills, aligned directly with your business goals.

Higher Retention, Greater Engagement

Investing in high-potential women reduces attrition and accelerates growth. Employees who receive development are 12x more likely to stay—don’t risk losing top talent simply because you didn’t invest in them

Dollars Saved

Upskilling your talent saves time, money, and drives results. It costs 20–50% of a manager’s salary to recruit externally—instead prepare internal talent to lead now. Protégés emerge with executive presence, a powerful network, and the confidence to take the lead.

Chris Bondarenko

CEO, 360 Learning

“”Participating in #GirlsClub allowed me to help to address an important DEI opportunity within the broader organization which included sponsorship as well as providing both mentors and mentees as participants. Collectively, this greatly impacted the organization with well-trained women in emerging leadership positions.

Over the past 4 years of personally being involved in #GirlsClub as a mentor and ally, I feel I get equally as much out of it as the mentees do. I give credit to #GirlsClub for supporting my development as an executive.”

“#GirlsClub is one of the best organizations out there right now. I have seen first-hand how it has helped people advance and grow within the company. That is why I continue to support such a great organization.”

“#GirlsClub for life! By far the most valuable program I’ve ever experienced. This network fully supports sales leaders—long after the Protégé program is over.”
