Kyria South England Conference 2027

THEME: RELATIONAL LEADERSHIP

Great leadership flows from healthy relationships. This conference invites women leaders to explore this theme with four key relationships that shape a life of influence:
1. Our relationship with God
2. Our relationship with ourselves
3. Our relationship with God's calling on our lives
4. Our relationship with others and how we cultivate healthy, life-giving connections with all in our leadership sphere

Join us as we discover what it means to lead from a place of deep connection and wholeness. Be inspired, encouraged, and equipped alongside other women to lead with greater authenticity, purpose, and influence.

Early Bird Rate Closes 21st January
