UC Berkeley Center for Equity, Gender & Leadership
UC Berkeley Leadership Academy for Women's Sports
The Leadership Academy for Women's Sports develops professionals to lead, influence, and advance the women's sports industry through skill-building, mentorship, and executive education coursework.
Women's sports are growing rapidly in visibility, investment, and cultural impact, but the leadership pipeline remains underdeveloped, and systemic biases persist. The Leadership Academy for Women's Sports is an immersive program, equipping professionals with the skills, networks, and confidence to challenge outdated norms and influence organizational systems. Through applied executive education, mentorship, and peer learning, participants gain the tools to shape the future of women's sports, strengthen the leadership pipeline, and drive lasting change.
