The Strategic Woman Method isn&#8217;t about teaching women how to work harder. It&#8217;s about teaching them how to think more strategically.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/21135202\/Sara-Gullickson-7.jpg\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\"wp-image-28351 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/21135202\/Sara-Gullickson-7-1024x768.jpg\" ><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The method focuses on execution, preparation, negotiation, strategic thinking and practical decision-making.
