Leadership Opportunities

We recognize the value of strong leadership skills in a legal career and beyond. We prioritize helping our members find and cultivate these skills. Members have many options for leadership within our organization.

Participate in our Leadership Program

Exclusive to members, NAWL’s Leadership Program is a virtual, multi-week, intensive cohort occurring annually in the fall. The Program seeks to strengthen participants’ leadership skills and build their professional networks. It is intended for members in a mid-to-senior career stage who are ready to advance to the next level.

Lead Through a Committee or Affinity Group

Our Committees and Affinity Groups give all members the chance to raise their hand to lead. Affinity Group members create and present virtual events. Committee members organize our conferences, produce our podcasts, and plan regional events.

Partner with a Coach

The coaches on the NAWL Coaching Roster are experienced and eager to work with women lawyers. Let them help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Supporting Our Leaders

Twice a year, we hold a virtual session on the best practices for NAWL leadership. We share tips for success and provide a forum for current leaders to connect and ask questions. The sessions are open to Affinity Group Chairs, Committee Chairs, and NAWL Board members.
