Accelerating your Success!

 

Welcome to GoGirl Academy  

                                                                                                            Our video introduction

GoGirl Academy (GGA) is the career advancement program for women who seek a competitive edge in the workplace.  We help you accelerate your career by teaching you to become your very best self.  Only GGA provides you with the right tools, a focused plan, and a network of influential women to guide you.

You start with 10 classes that address the essential needs of a GoGirl -- a clear personal brand, a professional look, strong communication skills, and a social media presence.  A personal coach leads each class supported by top experts in personal branding, wardrobe, hair, make-up, writing, public speaking, and social media.  They help you and your 10 classmates, women with similar experiences and goals, refine your skills and develop a focused plan to accelerate your success.  At the end of this core program, you join a network of influential women who can mentor you and help you achieve your personal and career objectives. 

   Who are GoGirls?

GoGirls are found at every age and every stage of life.  They are energetic, motivated, life-long learners who know what they want (and don’t want) and are willing to work hard to get it.  They care about others and want to help them through mentorship and community involvement.

Why we started GoGirl Academy

GoGirl Academy is the inspiration of Suzanne Keel-Eckmann and Jenni Hogan, two GoGirls with successful careers and a passion for helping other women succeed.  They have counseled many aspiring women and helped them refine their career goals and personal branding.  Their passion led to the creation of GoGirl Academy where others can learn the lessons they've learned and accelerate their path to success.

"So many wonderful mentors have helped me get to where I am today. The one simple thing they all asked me to do in return.... pay it forward. Launching GoGirl Academy is the perfect way to say thank you."                   Jenni Hogan

"I believe there are three keys to success:  preparing yourself, looking for opportunities, and acting courageously.  We started GoGirl to provide women with the tools to promote themselves, the networks to find opportunities, and the inspiration to pursue the next steps.  Come join us.  Your future is waiting."     Suzanne Keel-Eckmann

 

Meet our Executive Director!

Margo Myers, a name and face familiar to many because of her 20 year career in front of the TV news camera, has joined GoGirl Academy as our Executive Director.  She has counseled many women working towards their personal and career goals and will now expand that effort at GoGirl Academy.   Through her leadership, GoGirl Academy will become the "must do" career advancement program for aspiring women in the Seattle region and beyond.

 

Our Programs

GGA offers a range of career advancement programs for women of all ages.  We begin with four core programs each tailored to the needs of women at different stages of their life or career.  Classes are small (10-12 women) which allows lots of group interaction and personal attention from GGA coaches.  These coaches and our expert advisors help you accelerate your success by giving you the right tools, a focused plan, and access to a network of influential women who can guide you.

For graduates of a core program, we offer specialized workshops and seminars, personal coaching, networking events and other activities designed to support continued personal development and career advancement.

GoGirl Alumnae Network

The GoGirl Core Program is only the start.  GGA alumnae are there to help you expand your personal and professional network.   You will have access to this elite group of women through our private Alumnae website and frequent GGA networking events.  Click here for more information.

Community Involvement

Making the local community a better place to live and work is a basic value of GoGirls.  GGA supports women's organizations and other local non-profit groups with volunteer services, financial sponsorships and advisory services through our Alumnae Network.
