Meet Your Emcee for the 2025 Women’s Leadership Conference!

The Women’s Leadership Conference was created by Vicki Updike, founder of New Sage Strategies LLC, a company dedicated to the development of effective leaders. The conference is an all-day professional development and networking conference created to provide a platform outside of the workplace to educate, encourage and inspire women to take their careers to the next level. Our purpose is to empower our attendees by creating a community dedicated to helping each other build and enhance amazing careers.

The Women’s Leadership Conference is a fun, inclusive, high energy space. A place where you can simply just be. And when you can simply be, your heart, mind and soul can open all the way up to receive what is meant for you to experience at the conference.

Recent conference attendees shared that the most valuable benefit they got was the connections they created.

“The atmosphere was so energizing. It was amazing to come together with so many wonderful women.”

"The tangible tools that the speakers provided — very inspirational and empowering, but also useful tips."

"Great speakers, met new people, added things to my tool box."
