Join Women in Motion for LEAD WITH PURPOSE: Creating Connection, Confidence & Engagement, an interactive GWEN experience led by the Truist Leadership Institute.

​

ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE:

Strong engagement does not happen by chance. It is built through intentional leadership, meaningful connection and an environment where people feel valued, confident and motivated to contribute.

​

Participants will explore the six drivers of engagement and consider how each one influences personal performance, workplace culture, communication and results. Through evidence-based insights, meaningful conversation and practical application, you will identify what strengthens engagement, recognize common barriers and develop strategies you can use in your own leadership and relationships.

​

Whether you lead a team, manage a business, serve your community or are growing into your next leadership opportunity, this experience will help you lead with greater clarity, connection and purpose.

​

THE SIX DRIVERS OF ENGAGEMENT

  1. Connectedness: Creating a sense of belonging and meaningful connection with others.

  2. Importance: Understanding how your role, voice and contributions make a difference.

  3. Clarity: Knowing what is expected, where you are going and how your work supports the larger purpose.

  4. Control: Having appropriate ownership, influence and choice in how work is accomplished.

  5. Fairness: Building trust through consistency, transparency and equitable treatment.

  6. Competency: Developing the skills, support and belief needed to contribute and succeed.

What You’ll Gain:

A deeper understanding of what drives engagement for individuals and teams
