We are Canada’s most welcoming community for women who love business and want to make positive change in the world together. We believe every woman deserves a place where she is welcomed before she is judged, encouraged before she is evaluated, and connected before she is expected to succeed on her own.
Whether you are building a business, growing a career, mentoring others or simply looking for your people, Women in Biz is where relationships form, ideas are shared, and opportunities are made possible through connection rather than competition.
Our job board is where opportunity meets belonging, with every employer vetted for benefits and culture that help women build a future they actually want.

Leigh Mitchell
I make tech human and leaders unstoppable. I’m Leigh Mitchell. I deliver AI training, brand strategy and business strategy for ChangeMaker leaders and teams.
I’m also the CEO of Women in Biz Network, a community of 35,000+ leaders I’ve built since 2010. I help leaders and businesses put AI to work without losing the people behind the work.
My approach is neuro-inclusive and ADHD-friendly, built for people who think, lead and work differently. I teach and mentor on business, leadership, marketing and AI at York University, University of Guelph-Humber, YEDI (York Entrepreneurial Development Institute), Lean In Leadership Circles, NovaForge AI, YSpace, RISE Helps and The Prosperity Project. I host the ChangeMaker Leader Podcast. My work has earned a Forbes Top 10 Entrepreneur of Impact recognition and a Women of Microsoft Award, with features in national media across North America.
Since 2010, one question has guided my work: What helps Changemakers and students feel seen, encouraged, connected and capable?
Your brand starts before visibility
Before you ask “What should I post?” we start here:
Who am I now?
What do I want next?
What do I believe?
What do I bring?
What do I want to be known for?
My 4-P Positioning Prism gives your clarity structure:
Promise: What do you want to be known for?
Person: Who are you here to serve?
POV: What beliefs shape how you work?
Proof: What experiences show what you bring?
The goal is a brand built on the truest version of you, not a polished persona.
Strategy first, then AI
I offer AI training and consulting matched to your growth plan. First, we name the number you want to move: more leads, more clients, more AI compliance or more revenue. Then we pick the tools and build the habits to move the dial in your favour to meet your strategic goals. Measurement matters, and I help you build that foundation.
What I teach and speak on
- Career & leadership transitions
- Personal branding & positioning
- Inner leadership & self-trust
- Women in business
- Marketing & digital strategy
- Inclusive leadership
- AI strategy & change management
- Growth marketing
- Disruption in business
Curiosity -> Learning -> Confidence -> Action -> Change
Get Curious. Own Your Career. Own Your Leadership Imprint.

-Danielle LaPorte, Author & Oprah 100 Influencer
Thank you for the invitation to the conversation between you and Jenn Harper, founder of Cheekbone Beauty. It was one of the best entrepreneurial interviews (with some sensational wisdom)
I have experienced. I am a big fan of you, your work on the ChangeMaker Leader Podcast, Jenn, her products, and her commitment to the environment and to First Nations communities.
