Description The Leading to Choices manual is used to train diverse groups of women and girls in the practice of inclusive, participatory, and horizontal leadership. The goal is to empower women to take on leadership roles in their families, communities, and societies. The manual is based on the premise that effective leadership relies on the ability to communicate, listen, build consensus, and work in partnership with allies to develop a collective vision and implement an action plan. Sharing power and respect creates a strong group identity that both empowers individuals to achieve personal goals and mobilizes the group for collective action. This manual has been used in interactive training workshops with thousands of participants in more than 25 countries in the Global South, including women activists, academics, domestic workers, factory workers, NGO leaders, politicians, refugees, students, and indigenous women.
