What if your leadership was built in small steps? Discover how a 30-day challenge, with simple, daily actions, can transform your confidence, your influence and your career starting in 2026.
Designed for women who want to strengthen their leadership without pressure or injunction, the 30-day challenge is based on a progressive and realistic approach, adapted to the constraints of daily professional life.
Why does a 30 day challenge work?
Changing your habits or developing a new behavior requires consistency. According to behavioral psychology research, it takes approximately 21 to 30 days to turn an action into a habit.
The principle: small actions repeated every day create powerful cumulative effects. Rather than wanting to change everything at once, focus on concrete, measurable micro-actions.
Set your leadership goals
Before starting the challenge, define what you want to improve:
-
Self-confidence : dare to speak, express your ideas.
-
Communication : improve your emails, meetings or presentations.
-
Decision making : be faster and assertive in your choices.
-
Networking : develop strategic and inspiring relationships.
Trick : choose 2 to 3 axes maximum to stay focused and motivated during the 30 days.
Examples of micro-habits to adopt
Here are concrete actions to integrate into your daily routine:
- Self-confidence → Say “ Yes » taking a small professional risk
- Communication → Prepare a clear point for each meeting or call
- Decision making → Note 1 key decision made during the day and why
- Networking → Send a message or email to reinforce a key contact
- Learning → Read 10 minutes of an article or book on leadership
Women’s Business Advice: write down your actions in a notebook or on a tracking app. Visualizing progress boosts motivation.
