Ep. 34 Strategies to Elevate Women’s Self-Empowerment
05/27/20 • 48 min
In this episode of The Forum Podcast, Dr. Myra Hubbard (Hubbard & Hubbard, Inc.) explores the difference between being empowered and self-empowered, how to elevate women’s “self-empowered,” as well as offering next-level practices and strategies for both personal and professional development.
Although the phrase “women’s empowerment” is used pervasively, surprisingly there is no common definition of “women’s self-empowerment.” What does it really mean to be self-empowered, and what does it entail?
There is a difference between being empowered and self-empowerment. Empowerment that comes to your life from external influences is not the only type of empowerment needed if you are seeking a life-altering positive change or to achieve your personal and career goals. When you are empowered by others, it might help improve your life or even enable you to become self-empowered, but to make a lasting change, you have to take personal responsibility, own it, and do the personal work required to make the change.
Participants will learn a Strategic Self-Empowerment Implementation Model which you can start to apply immediately.
Learning Outcomes- Learn process steps for achieving self-empowerment outcomes and personal and career transformation
- Learn how to use forward-facing self-empowerment approaches to shift blocks to personal performance
- Apply the Strategic Self-Empowerment Model Spotlight technique to real-world situations

Ep. 33 Include to Innovate
In this episode of The Forum Podcast, Melissa Majors (Melissa Majors Consulting) explains why you shouldn't use white boards and flip charts to facilitate group conversation. Instead, Melissa will be taking us through a blame-free examination of common challenges and tactics for better inclusion outcomes for your organization.
At the core of most disruptive strategies is the ability to empathize with constituent's needs and use that insight to inform the development of amazing products and experiences. However, we often rely solely on our own perspectives or those within our social circle to inform how we serve others. What happens when those we serve don’t look or think like us? How do we genuinely uncover their needs and deliver relevant experiences?

Learning Outcomes- Describe the unintended business impact of social circles, groupthink, and exclusionary practices on decisions
