#WECAN Workshop: How to be a visible leader
#WECAN (Women Empowered through Coaching and Networking) project aims to enhance the resilience and growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by building the leadership skills, capabilities and opportunities of women in the Leeds City Region.

Women rarely held positions of power in Ancient Greek society, however one woman who held an immense amount of power was Pythia.

Overview

Pythia, the famous oracle at Delphi was visited by the leaders and their counsel from across the known world, seeking her advice and guidance. Operating being smoky screens and talking in riddles, what lessons can she teach us about leadership?
