[BAdolf1006 at aol.com]

Dear Gotham,
 
I am happy to announce that the one-day course, Women’s Leadership in a  
Changing World, which I taught on Dec. 1, 2007, was extremely well received. As  a 
result, I will be teaching it again on Saturday, March 15, 2008, 10 AM to 4  
PM, at New York  University, midtown campus.  The course launched an exciting 
and innovative certificate program on Women’s  Leadership, from the Department 
of Leadership and Human Capital Management  Graduate Programs, School of 
Continuing and Professional Studies at  NYU. Following is the description: 
Women's Leadership  in a Changing World 
Women are becoming a major force in businesses across all industries and  
professions as they bring many strengths to the work world. Yet they continue to  
face unique challenges. This forum, designed especially for women, addresses  
these challenges and focuses on building the skills, behaviors and supports  
necessary to assume current and future leadership roles. Among the learning  
tools presented is an innovative mentoring model that has achieved impressive  
results. Through a combination of lectures, small group exercises and case  
studies, each student develops a personal action plan based on her own strengths 
and learns strategies  to develop leadership skills in others.  
Please note that as part of the program we will  have a distinguished guest 
speaker: Jodie Ousley, Partner at d’Arcambla Levine  & Ousley LLP. This 
women-owned law firm has created an innovative and highly  successful approach to 
workplace flexibility that responds to the work-life  needs of today’s employees.
