Let me know if this sounds familiar…
- You want people to love working for you
- You want to bring the best out of others and help them get things done (with quality!)
- You are confident in your technical skills, but want to be seen as a leader and really stand out
- You want something more than traditional training and HBR articles. You want simple and proven tools.
- speaking up for yourself can be hard - you sometimes question your place
- You feel alone sometimes and the idea of a community of other women sounds amazing
- ongoing growth is important to you and you want to excel and be your best
You're not alone, and luckily, there is a simple solution.
Truth Talk
70% of employee engagement is connected to how effective you are as a manager.
But typical leadership development programs are lacking.
They are too high level and you know they aren't relevant to your specific role or team.
When you leave the training you think "that was pretty good" but then there isn't any application back on the job.
Which means, there isn't a change. It isn't effective.
On top of it, who do you go to when you're doubting yourself and don't feel prepared to lead? You don't want HR and your boss to know.
You need a safe space to develop and grow.
True leadership development will give you practical and relevant tools and resources you can use when you need them.
Enrollment is closed. the investment is $5,000.

Yes, It Really Works:
Stacy is more confident and proactive with her team
Just join. I love it. It's positive. It's a safe environment. It's digestible and easy to apply to your every day life.
Oh, my God. I'm so confident. I feel like there's less of a line between my personal and work now. I look forward to going every week. If you're going to show up and apply yourself, there's no way that you cannot get more out of it than you expect.
Kavitha became a more effective leader
...coaching concepts are practically applicable at any level of leadership.
Melissa’s Stand Out Leader Incubator is a perfect guide to be the leader you want. Her coaching concepts are practically applicable at any level of leadership and beneficial to the team and the organization. I enjoyed being a part of the incubator and strongly believe it is worth the investment.
Rachel overcame fear and doubt as a leader
This process was so worth it & I'd recommend Melissa without hesitation.
I had a lot of doubt and fear going into a new leadership role. Negative self talk was really a problem for me. The changes I experienced in coaching influenced the entire way that I work and the way that I interact with people, respond to emails, hold meetings, it bleeds into everything. This process was so worth it.

This *is* for you if:
You direct the work of others as their line manager OR in a cross-functional team OR you are working toward management.
You care about the development and engagement of your team and want to develop them while also bringing in company results
You want a proven and simple way to be an effective manager without reading a bunch of books or attending random courses
You doubt yourself sometimes and don't want your mindset or lack of confidence to hold you back with your team or in your career
The idea of having a personalized, safe and private space for you to grow into the best leader you can sounds amazing
This is *not* for you if...
You don't consider yourself a manager (directly or indirectly) and don't want to be
You care more about the title, money and power that comes with management than you do the people
You aren't in the Pharma or Biotech industry
You are looking for a quick fix and don't enjoy self-development
You don't want to be in a community of other women leaders in the industry

I know what it's like because I was there, too.
Hi, I'm Melissa Lawrence.
I am a former leader of Talent & Development for a large Pharma company and have 20 years of experience developing women in the industry.
I know the strengths and the gaps of the training that is available. The problem is that you aren't properly prepared to apply what you learn and to lead from a human perspective. There is also a huge gap in connecting women in the industry. It's time to step out of textbook and academia learning, and into development that works.
This is people mastery. So you can be the leader you want to be and propel your career forward.
This is where people managers become people leaders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be a people manager?
No. You do not have to be a people manager, you just have to be working toward being one or already directing the work of others in some way (directly or in a matrix).
How do you define manager/leader?
Most development programs separate managers from leaders. Not here. You can lead from any level. Managers direct the work of at least one person.
Will it work for me?
Yes. It is impossible to fail at this program. As long as you show up and apply what you learn, you will be successful. When you have a misstep, the coaching is there to help you. This is one of the ways this program is different from others.
When are the calls
Calls are three times a month on Tuesdays at 11:00am. The first call is August 8th. Replays are made available within 48 hours.
Can my work pay for this?
Yes. Your employer may pay for your investment as it directly impacts your results at work. Here is a letter you can use to make your request.
Note: Your investment in career development is often tax deductible also. Check with your accountant.
