The table presents a structured overview of how specific curriculum design features activate psychological mechanisms to achieve developmental outcomes in leadership development. It is divided into three main columns: Curriculum Design Features, Psychological Mechanisms Activated, and Developmental Outcomes. The Curriculum Design Features column lists activities such as strengths assessment interpretation, narrative identity construction, and power reframing through facilitated dialogue. The Psychological Mechanisms Activated column details the cognitive and emotional processes triggered by these activities, such as increased self-awareness, public articulation of leadership self-concept, and redefinition of authority. The Developmental Outcomes column outlines the resulting benefits, including intentional strengths application, stronger leadership self-identification, and a shift from 'power-over' to 'power-with'.Pedagogical mechanisms linking curriculum design to leadership development outcomes. This model illustrates how three interconnected mechanisms – translating personal talents into leadership assets, narrative identity construction and power reframing through facilitated dialogue – connect specific curriculum activities to developmental outcomes that support women's authentic leadership development
