About

Women assuming leadership positions are at an all-time high. Research shows that women CEOs frequently outpace their male counterparts in delivering profits, women are at the forefront of scientific research and women coaches exceed expectations in terms of leading teams.

However, today's leadership comes with a new set of challenges that require more than a solid business strategy. As more female leaders take high-ranking roles, there is an increasing movement for all genders to implement leadership styles that propel successful women in business and the companies they lead.

Additionally, there is always a need to create new role models so that more women could dream about joining the workforce and rising up the ladder! The ‘HER Leadership’ series, co-presented by AWS and YourStory, is a step ahead in this direction.

Why ExecLeaders?

After hosting two successful virtual seasons, AWS and YourStory have joined hands to give ‘HER Leadership’ a physical form. The event - ExecLeaders 2023 - will bring together leaders from the two seasons of HER Leadership alongside many other successful changemakers, building on the theme ‘Breaking Barriers: Building Resilient Enterprises of the Future’.

The event will take place on May 17, 2023 at JW Marriott Sahar, Mumbai on the sidelines of The AWS Summit, company’s annual mega summit.

Why should you attend?

  • To meet and listen to women changemakers
  • To know more about the leadership playbooks of some of the country’s top and most successful business and tech leaders
  • To network and build your community
  • To find potential mentors and exchange knowledge and ideas with peers
