Huntsville Leadership Program
About the Program
For nearly 25 years, Momentum has delivered training, resources, and network for high-level leaders to achieve their goals. In 2022, Momentum expanded our highly successful executive leadership program to North Alabama.
Momentum’s process for advancing women leaders is truly transformative. By nurturing both personal and professional growth, honing business skills, and building lifelong relationships, participants become equipped, confident, and inspired to reach new goals.
Over the course of nine months, participants in our Executive Leadership program experience high-quality leadership development during full-day sessions with expert facilitators from across the country. Session topics typically include: Resilient Leadership, Leading with Excellence, Building Your Development Plan, Negotiation, and more.

Participant Criteria
A selection committee of Momentum alumnae selects 25-30 participants from the application pool of some of Alabama’s top women leaders. The committee looks for leaders with varying backgrounds, professions, and civic experiences to ensure that each class is rich in diversity of thought. Each year we receive far more applications than we can accept, and many qualified applicants may be deferred. We encourage these applicants to apply again the following year. There is no cost to submit an application.
The following is the general profile of the target participant:
- Holds a minimum of 10-years of high level professional or civic experience in her career and community
- Possesses significant management experience
- Demonstrates leadership in high-level projects or initiatives
- Has a strong commitment to personal and professional growth
