Behind Every Successful Woman
Is A Tribe of Other Successful Women Who Have Her Back
We want the Bella story to be every women’s story. One of finding out who we are, what we’re made of, and learning to take those experiences to stand in our power and create the most profound professional and business lives possible.
Yet, we can’t do that alone. We need a powerful network.
The Bella Network is more than a social network or a family network but a network that includes top-level corporate professionals, small business owners and entrepreneurs exchanging ideas and sharing experiences.
Bellas are invested in making the connections to support your efforts and are willing to advocate on your behalf. Those types of relationships take time. Spend time with a tribe of Bellas!

We Do Conferences Differently!
Don’t you hate it when you go to an event and know something that the speaker doesn’t? Wouldn’t it be great if the conference forum allowed everyone to share what they know? Their expertise, their experience.
That’s just what we do. We believe that everyone has expertise worth sharing, so we minimize the use of speakers and panels.
Our participants come from various industries and levels of experience. This diversity adds tremendously to the overall knowledge sharing. You don’t just hear one person’s perspective or discussions from just a few. More importantly, we are looking for opportunities to develop a fresh way of addressing a situation, challenge, or issue, so everyone’s perspective is important.

The Power of Communicating: Crafting Compelling Narratives
The three levels of communication (strategic, operational, and tactical) are powerful tools. They help convey essential messages and build strong, trusting relationships with people whose perspectives differ from your own. Those who do it well in businesses can connect to leadership, peers, clients, and other target audiences in verbal and non-verbal ways. Effective communication helps relationships get off on the right foot, navigate problems, overcome critical concerns, and address change over time.
Our goal for this conference is to guide attendees on the following:
- How to communicate to the 4th Power
- How to develop a storytelling strategy
- How to talk so men will listen
- How to communicate with dumb and dysfunctional bosses
- How to overcome negative thoughts and irrational feelings when communicating with ourselves
I regret that we were unable to provide our annual Women’s Leadership Conference in 2022 and 2023 as planned. Details Coming Soon for November 2024!
The 2021 Women’s Leadership Conference was held as intimate sessions with paid Bella members due to COVID restrictions and safety concerns.
Four Keys to Success for Individual Leadership
- INTENTION: What intentional actions can you take towards achieving a desired goal? Piloting your own progress!.
- AUTHENTICITY: How are you developing your self-awareness about your values, behaviors, preferences and skills to determine the gap between fitting in and being yourself professionally.
- CONNECTION: Learn how to cultivate a network of champions who are sponsoring your progress as a support system, and connectors into new opportunities.
- WHOLENESS: Understand how to have it all by setting boundaries for balance or an equitable division of time between work, family, friends and social activities.
So this is what you do as a Bella?
In 2020 we provided an opportunity for everyone to experience our conference as a free ZOOM event. We broke the day out into three separate sessions. A morning, midday, and afternoon session. The morning session was titled – Pandemic and Election Check-In…How are you doing? How are you feeling? We wanted to take time for “sisterhood.” In our second midday session, we provided a peek into what by sharing clips from past conference sessions. Finally, we split the group into three smaller separate sessions for our afternoon breakout sessions, where we brainstormed on how to overcome some of our biggest professional challenges and opportunities facing Black women.Breaking Through to Excellence!
