Women’s Leadership Connection
The Women’s Leadership Connection has a core mission of connecting women not only to each other, but also to opportunities for professional advancement. WLC’s offerings include our annual conference, speaker training course, mentorship program, and workshops series—all designed to help women advance in their careers and in the community. Be sure to sign up for our mailing list below!
If you’d like to be a part of WLC in any capacity—board member, volunteer, sponsor, mentor, or mentee—please reach out to us at [email protected].
We’re already planning more programs and specialized workshops based on your feedback. Stay tuned for information about our fall Speaker Training Course and Writers Workshop.
WLC Workshops
Our interactive workshops offer leadership development and skill-building opportunities in a supportive environment. Join us quarterly throughout 2025 to connect with other women and LGBTQ+ professionals.
Mentorship Program
We saw a need to create one-on-one mentoring opportunities to support emerging leaders throughout Southern Oregon. By creating in-person partnerships with qualified mentors, our mentees further their leadership skills and advance in their corporate or entrepreneurial careers.
Sponsorships
Our sponsors have helped make the WLC conference the must-attend event for emerging and established leaders throughout Oregon and Northern California. You and your business can be a part of our conference, workshops, and ongoing education for those who want to develop their leadership skills and advance their careers
