Everything you need to know so far plus how to prioritize your leadership, wellness, performance, and presence: Queens of Innovation Crown Table | Grounded to Greatness — Leading with Clarity in a High-Stakes Year
This Month’s Theme = Grounded to Greatness — Leading with Clarity in a High-Stakes Year as we head to world cup
Description:
2026 is not a normal year. With global sporting events, economic shifts, and heightened visibility ahead, women innovators are being asked to lead louder, faster, and more publicly. This Crown Table creates intentional space to ground ourselves before we scale ourselves.
This session centers clarity on your opportunities, capacity, and roles to practically engage with the World cup opportunities, as well as self-leadership as strategic advantages — not soft skills — and sets the foundation for the months ahead.
Core Question:
What is happening and what does it have to do with me? How do we stay grounded, well, and focused while preparing for expanded visibility and opportunity?
