Melinda French Gates speaks at Women Leading Change in Health and Science in India Conference

In this thought-provoking address from our conference “Women Leading Change in Health and Science in India”, Melinda French Gates, shares her insights on the pressing need for gender-intentional policies in the realm of health. 

The Leadership Journey

WomenLift Health believes that global health challenges will not be solved unless talented women have a seat at the table. The Leadership Journey is designed to give talented women leaders the tools – confidence, networks, understanding of barriers – along with peer, mentor and coach support, to successfully use their voice, expertise and leadership skills for health impact. To us, success is not exclusively defined by a title or a salary increase, but by expanding the power and influence of talented women in global health.

Leadership Styles

Authentic
Leadership

is discovered through an exploration of one’s self and purpose while building on awareness of and trust in one’s abilities. This exploration enhances the insight, energy, and resilience that is key to leading as the most true and impactful version of oneself.

inclusive
Leadership

encourages an intentional exploration of power and privilege and how it manifests in interpersonal and institutional dynamics. It builds connections with colleagues and community by including individuals of diverse identities to build an environment that allows everyone to be successful.

strategic
Leadership

inspires gender equality and leads to better health through a crystalized understanding of the power of one’s leadership and the critical importance of developing others for greater impact.

impactful
Leadership

is rooted in an understanding of one’s influence and how to leverage it to capture collective energy and facilitate change within institutions and the global health community. Crucial to this is building an inclusive cultural dynamic that is based on trust and inspires action toward a better future.

We firmly believe that collaboration is the cornerstone of success, and we take immense pride in joining forces with industry leaders who share our vision and values. Together, we will shape a brighter future for global health leadership.
