Women Empowerment and Leadership

Leadership built on strengths, not fixed weaknesses — performance leadership, conflict management and the confidence to claim the career the research says women are denied.

The programme

Gallup’s international studies point to a specific pattern limiting women’s career progression: development that focuses on fixing weaknesses instead of building on strengths. This workshop is designed around the areas women report finding most challenging — and which are key requirements for success in the 21st century. The cohort works through achieving success in business — overcoming negative perceptions and self-doubt, and setting a leadership journey with focus and determination; leading and motivating a team to maximum performance across meetings, teams and projects; and effective conflict management — the capability to deal with adverse conversations, reverse them, and come out on top with confidence and grace.

What you will do

Build on strengths rather than fixing weaknesses — the development pattern Gallup finds limits women’s progression.
Dismantle negative perceptions and self-doubt, and set your leadership journey with focus and determination.
Lead and motivate a team to maximum performance, the most important skill any leader carries.
Run meetings, teams and projects with sharpened performance management skills, whatever your level of business.
Reverse adverse conversations through effective conflict management, coming out on top with confidence and grace.

Who attends

  • Senior leaders across departments and industries
  • Business owners who must be at the top of their game at all times
  • Middle-management professionals with their eye on the top job
  • Directors, managers, team leaders and HR professionals

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.

Frequently asked

Do the HR programmes cover people analytics and workforce planning?

Yes. The curriculum runs from analytics for talent management through strategic workforce planning, competency frameworks and succession. Participants leave able to build a workforce plan, apply statistical techniques to the data already sitting in their HRIS, and connect talent decisions to business impact in numbers.

Do programmes address nationalisation and localisation mandates?

Yes — recruitment, retention and succession under nationalisation mandates are covered directly, including competency-based selection and the succession pipelines those policies demand. Participants leave able to build a localisation plan that fills roles with capability, not just headcount.

How does admission to an HR programme work?

Submit an application or a brochure request from the programme page; a senior practitioner answers within one business day, brochure included. There is no online checkout — dates, format and fees are settled in that conversation.

Can we train our whole HR function at once?

Yes. Every programme runs in-house, tailored to your HR operating model, your systems and your workforce priorities, in English or French. A private cohort lets the whole function work on the same live problem rather than sending individuals to separate courses.
