Organisations have begun to meet diversity benchmarks in a variety of industries, globally. Yet, evidence indicates that women are still underrepresented in a variety of fields, particularly in leadership positions. In fact, only 5–7% of senior management* and 4.7% of the CEO population* are female. To turn the glass ceiling into a glass floor, women need to equip themselves with the competencies to confront the unique challenges that are ahead of them.
Unconscious prejudices in the selection, appraisal, and job assignments; a dearth of role models; and a shrinking peer group are some of the many hurdles that women face from time to time while ascending their career trajectories. Developing leadership skills that foster the unique values, attributes, and perspective of a woman can extremely benefit one in thriving in their career trajectories.
The Women’s Leadership Programme has been designed to help women acquire leadership abilities to expand their executive presence and increase their influence. The programme empowers ascending women with the skills, strategies, confidence, and connections they need to achieve their professional goals. The programme offers a variety of interactive and immersive learning opportunities to strengthen the leadership acumen of women professionals.
