The Ambition Revolution www.amandablesing.com

If you don't like the way things are, then change them! I'm currently on a mission to inspire and drive change around the issue of empowerment of women in (and into) leadership roles.

My observation over many years working alongside busy and career minded professionals is that the men were far more likely to put their hand up to speak at conferences, write articles, nominate for awards, volunteer for career advancement opportunities or accept large challenges. And while many of the amazing women I had the pleasure of working with were super intelligent, career minded, and some were already demonstrating great leadership, for a range of reasons they weren't as "bold" as their male counterparts when it comes to stepping up, speaking out or taking charge. Interestingly the recent Bain & Company report entitled "Everyday Moments of Truth" articulates the reality for women in corporate roles and describes the clash that frequently occurs with the traditional corporate culture that results in a nosedive in confidence and ambition in just two years.

As a result of my observations I have created The Ambition Revolution – the science and art of amping smart and savvy. I mentor busy professionals to ensure they remain strategic, agile and focused on the bigger game - along with maintaining their focus on the leadership skills that women innately have.

I also work with organisations who are trying to increase the profile of women in leadership, but struggling to do so with a Talent Pipeline Leadership Development Program.

Vive la révolution! #ambitionrevolution
