The ASPIRE Leadership Network is a community of live and virtual events that is part of ASPIRE Companies, an internationally-recognized and award-winning leader in leadership education, coaching, events and research related to women as business, diversity and social leaders.

ASPIRE was founded in 2001 by Dr. Samantha Collins, winner of The Women's Social Leadership Award 2010, voted one of the Top Ten Coaches by The Independent and recognized by Her Majesty, The Queen of England as one of the Top 200 Women to Impact Business & Industry.

Research shows that investing in women significantly impacts an organization’s bottom line and the economy. Women make up over 50% of graduates and only 10 – 20% of senior business leaders. Women represent 70% of the world’s poor yet perform 66% of the world’s work but earn 10% of the income and own 1% of the property.

ASPIRE partners with women leaders to create inspiring visions, strategies and execute tailor-made plans that advance women’s careers, organizational success and women’s economic and social development in the world.

We strongly believe in, and work to, our values of excellence, authenticity, passion, pioneering spirit, connection and making a difference.
