Day Journey
Leading Authentically: Defining Your Leadership Signature
A one-day BWELL Journey for Black women ready to strengthen their leadership identity, presence and authenticity.
The Journey
Why Leading Authentically?
Leadership does not develop in a vacuum. We are shaped by the people who influenced us, the expectations placed on us, and the environments we have navigated along the way.
Leading Authentically creates space to look more closely at those experiences, understand what is genuinely yours, and choose how you want to lead with greater clarity and intention.
The question at the center
Who am I as a leader, and how do I lead from that truth without abandoning myself to belong?
Inside the Experience

“Dr. Bailey created a space where I could show up fully as myself, without apology, and still walk away with tools I can use in my career. Leading Authentically reminded me that leadership doesn’t have to be lonely. I found a community of women who understand my challenges and cheered my success. I left feeling recharged and ready to step into my power.”
“This was much needed! I appreciated the level of thought that went into the program. Collaborations and moments of reflection were very much needed. I loved the interactive atmosphere, as "lecture-style" typically doesn't keep me interested.”
