Lean In Circles bring women together to build leadership skills, take action toward their goals, and cheer each other on along the way. Research shows that peers can be the most effective mentors — Circle members get promotions and raises at 2x the rate of the general population.

What is a Lean In Circle?

A Circle is a small group of peers who meet regularly to connect and learn.

Circles combine research-backed leadership content with structured discussions — so every meeting moves you forward.

Connect with other women.

Circles are intentionally small to allow for meaningful connections. Members build trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging. Growing as a leader is easier when you do it together.

In the times of AI and rapid transformation, I am convinced that women-led communities are not optional, they are essential infrastructure. They create safer spaces to learn, challenge bias, accelerate confidence and enable women to lead authentically.
