A group of 8-12 peers who meet regularly to support and inspire one another, guided by a world-class curriculum.


Go further, faster
Imagine a book club of women you admire, generating rich discussion around the skills and insights needed to advance professionally — this is what you’ll experience through Lean In Circles. Our free, skills-based Circles program gives you access to research, discussion guides, and practice exercises with a proven record of success.
Be part of a global movement.
Every year, 25,000 new Circles are started around the world. Once you start a Circle, you will be welcomed into a diverse, powerful global movement that includes volunteer-led Lean In Networks that plan events in more than 40 countries. Our community also includes Company and Lean In Girls partners who spread our research and resources to women and leaders around the world.
