The Thread: A Women's Leadership Collective

The Thread: A Women's Leadership Collective Take Notes, Then Take Over. A program & community for female leaders who refuse to play small.

Research shows that many women want to take a bigger leadership role but two things hold them back: confidence and connection. The Thread is aiming right at the heart of breaking that pattern for women in Wichita. Our mission is to develop the ambition in women to lead more and to lead better, starting with themselves.

It's not UNCOMMON to look for external validation as a measuring stick for confidence, but it is A RISKY GAME to play because circumstances can always change. Emily Stevens says, "Confidence is an inside job. It grows when we align WHO we want to be with HOW we actually live."

This is the kind of work our cohort members get to wade through in The Thread. Because confidence is not a trait, rather, it's a muscle built through self-discovery, self-compassion, action and small victories. We believe that confidence is an important factor into growing into who we were made to be - at work and in life.

Cohort 12 starts this fall. If you're feeling the tug, you can check out the dates here: https://www.thethreadwichita.com/apply

Loneliness isn’t just personal. It’s professional.

According to Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace 2024, one in five employees globally report feeling lonely. And yet, we still show up to lead, perform and produce. Connection is not a bonus. It is part of how we build confidence, capacity and sustainable leadership. 

Cohort 11 started rolling with orientation and their first workshop this week, and it already feels like the beginning of something really meaningful.

There is something powerful about the moment a new cohort begins. Women from different industries and seasons of life all choosing growth, honesty, and support. Last month we kicked off Cohort 11 with a Welcome Party at , tomorrow we orientate!

So many women have been taught to split themselves in two.

Be the leader.
Be the mom.

At The Thread, we believe leadership gets stronger when women stop abandoning parts of themselves to fit the room.
Wholeness is not a distraction from leadership. It is part of it.
