Women Leadership Accelerator Programme 2024

We empower emerging women leaders with practical skills to navigate bias and accelerate their careers.

What’s holding you back?

You work hard, you deliver great results, and yet you are still not progressing at the same rate as your male peers.

 

Why? 

 

Watch this video to find out more.

Tell me, is this you?

  • You’re tired of being told ‘you are not quite ready’ and being passed up for a promotion, despite working hard and always receiving great performance reviews
  • In meetings, you get spoken over or your ideas are dismissed or stolen
  • You’ve been told you need to be more ‘strategic’, or have greater ‘stature and presence’, but you don’t know what to do with this feedback
  • You’ve been told you are either too loud, pushy and aggressive OR you are too quiet, shy and lack confidence
  • You know networks are essential to career progression but you don't have the time to build one, and you don’t really know where to start
  • You know you need to negotiate more and advocate for yourself, but you worry about backlash if you do so

Imagine if

  • You finally get the promotion you deserve and secure a position that matches the value you bring to the workplace
  • You recruit powerful sponsors to amplify your achievements, advocate for you, and give you access to strategic networks
  • You successfully negotiate for what you really want and need without triggering others or fearing backlash
  • You are able to step into your fullest potential, influencing through stature and presence and communicating with impact
  • You skillfully mitigate unseen workplace barriers, overcoming the impact of gender stereotypes and paving the way for yourself and other women to come
  • You replace that negative voice in your head that sometimes hold you back with a loud, proud voice that cheers you on

Client success stories

Anita, Account Director

The ideas and effort behind the innovative program are based on evidence that includes navigating the challenges in the workplace, peer support and network access. I understood and learnt more about how to get the best support from my manager, other ways to navigate and manage myself, and a better system to self support throughout my career.

Yoko, General manager

What I learned was that being able to say what I want to say, and being able to say what I need to say in any circumstance is very important. And with consideration to others, of course, but most importantly, consideration to myself. I learned it is okay to be myself at work.

Bell, Senior Director

It gives you an affirmation that the challenges and apprehensions that you thought may be unique to you also happened to others. I learned a lot from my fellow participants, which inspired me to get going, make a difference and also continue doing my best. It's a good feeling when their experiences at work and their thoughts somewhat resonate with yours. and I'm really excited to build a relationship and create a positive support group with my gorgeous circle.

Suechi, Head of Sourcing

It teaches all of us to embrace the fear and to also seize the opportunity. There were also a lot of takeaways such as how to navigate through difficult situations, difficult conversations. I also enjoyed the networking sessions with the leaders where they shared glimpses into their personal lives and how they shaped their career journey.

Frequently asked questions

We will be launching new programme dates throughout the year. Please add your name to our waitlist to be kept informed of future launches

The live sessions will be recorded and shared with participants after each session. After watching the video content, you can schedule a time with the facilitator to review the content and ensure you are able to apply the learning. Peer support groups are not recorded but materials and content will be shared after each session. Mentor Masterclasses will be recorded and shared with participants who miss the sessions.

We have successfully run this programme in-house for several multinational organisations. It is ideal if you have a larger group of women you want to attend as part of one cohort (10 or above). Please contact us to find out more.

Over the four months, you can expect to spend a maximum of 6 hours on pre-work, 12 hours in live facilitated sessions, 6 hours in peer-group sessions, and 3 hours in mentor masterclasses. This is 27 hours in total, which is about 6-7 hours per month

If you are dissatisfied with the course and which to cancel after enrollment, we will offer you a full refund. If you start the course but are unable to complete it due to unforeseen circumstances, we can offer partial refunds and a case-by-case basis.

Personal, specific challenges can emerge throughout the programme, leading some participants to look for additional one-on-one coaching. We offer coaching packages with our programme facilitators, who are both qualified and accredited coaches. Prices are available on request
