A Visit to Dallas
By The Policy Circle Team
The Policy Circle team was recently in Dallas, spreading the organization’s message and vision with over 60 women in the area. As a result, new circle leaders expanded their comfort zones, took a leadership role and started their own Policy Circles!

A range of women participated, some of whom were already influencers and some who were looking for that next step in their leadership journey. What we discovered was a network of enthusiastic women who, regardless of how engaged they were, found a deep appreciation for the Policy Circle’s thoughtful discussion model. These included supporters of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, the Dallas Women’s Foundation and 4Word Women.
Why Texas?
The energetic women of Dallas welcomed a new way of engaging in public policy. When circles begin to sprout in a state, such as Texas, it’s an opportunity to grow the movement and bring Policy Circle leaders and members together. The best way to ensure members can collaborate with one another is to establish 20 Policy Circles in a state. With 20 circles a network begins to form, and opportunities to engage and influence at the state level arise.
Imagine being connected with curious, analytical and rational women throughout your state to discuss policy and grow professionally. The Policy Circle is an easy way to hone your leadership skills by practicing discussing policies that impact your family, your business operations, your team, your customers.
