the power shift leadership accelerator
redefine how you lead
a 6-month leadership accelerator for women who are juggling targets, teams and expectations — and want to lead in a way that actually works for them.
leadership rarely comes with a manual. the power shift gives you a structured space to recalibrate how you lead. over six months you'll dig into the dynamics of leadership, pressure and expectations. each session is designed and led by karina streng, alongside guest leaders who've been in your shoes.

5+1 online sessions
five deep-dive sessions with executive coaches and guest senior leaders — strategy, practice and reflection in one room, plus an individual 1:1 coaching session.

tools & templates
plug-and-play resources for hard conversations, power frames, stakeholder mapping and boundary setting.
peer group support & exchange
fireside chats in groups of four to go unfiltered on your real leadership challenges.
what we hear all the time
“responsibility vs reward. setting boundaries vs visibility. communicating with power. leading without full control.”
“self-care falling off the list. sleepless nights. masking — showing up “on”. perfectionism and carrying everyone else's load.”
