ANNOUNCING A 3-DAY WOMEN CONSERVATIONISTS LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP IN KENYA (14-16th February, 2020) AT THE PATHWAYS AFRICA: HUMAN DIMENSIONS OF WILDLIFE CONFERENCE!

Applications will open Monday, 15 July
  • Have you ever felt alone in your field and in need of someone to share challenges and successes with?
  • Have you ever felt that you have become so busy that you no longer feel joy or find time to maintain your health and own wellbeing?
  • Do you feel you have the technical skills but need to know more about yourself and your leadership style?
  • Do you ever wish you knew how to mentor and inspire your team effectively or how to manage conflict and criticism more productively?
  • Do you find yourself avoiding difficult, yet important, conversations because the idea seems overwhelming?
  • Do you ever feel that knowing yourself better would help you lead better?
  • Do you ever wonder how to remain strong and resilient when you feel everything is crumbling around you?

In February 2020, The Pride Lion Conservation Alliance and Colorado State University will host a 3-day training workshop at the Brackenhurst Conference and Training Center in Limuru, Kenya to a cohort of women conservationists aimed at creating a new path to successful leadership, increasing resilience in challenging times, and joining a network of like-minded women conservationists. The training will offer personal growth opportunities such as leadership identity development, mentorship training, negotiation/conflict resolution skills, and creating a peer network of women conservation leaders to support one another in achieving greater conservation impact. Successful applicants will be encouraged to submit an abstract or session proposal to be presented at the Pathways Kenya conference directly following the 3-day training.
