Women with Impact Programme: An Introduction
- 1. Women with Impact Programme: An Introduction Creating Strong, Confident and Equipped Female Leaders
- 2. A Collaborative Programme By & Our Programme in a Nutshell: Personal development training that will ensure that women feel valued, personally aware, better informed and who can support cross functional collaboration. Continued support to the delegates to improve decision making, assist innovation and achieve business goals. A talent review and return on investment assessment to provide the business with a better understanding of the value that the programme has achieved.
- 3. Who’s It For? Individuals who: • Are at a point of transition in their career and are unsure about what to do • Feel they have more to offer but not sure how to change things • Suffer from feelings of overwhelm or being out of their depth at work • Lack a sense of direction or focus • Struggle to communicate confidently with certain people or in certain situations • Are experiencing ongoing stress • Have a lot of potential, but need some help to unlock it Organisations that: • Are experiencing a period of change or growth and need to ensure they are utilising the potential of all of their employees • Have talented female employees that they could not afford to lose • Have a male dominated senior management team and so missing out on the well documented business benefits of having diversity at the top • Looking for an innovative and cost effective way to gain a competitive advantage
- 4. Why Women Matter It is possible that your organisation could be unintentionally disengaging, and restricting your talented female employees. If this is the case it could be affecting your bottom line. Here’s why..... •Extensive research has shown that businesses with gender diversity at the top perform significantly better and are more financially successful. (McKinsey & co) Developing your female employees could improve YOUR business performance and profitability. •80% of consumer decisions are made by women, and yet in the UK they represent only around 15% of executive committee members. Do your key business decision makers represent your customer base? •The world is facing a catastrophic shortage of highly skilled workers. Businesses increasingly need to nurture and retain their talent to remain competitive. Can you afford to lose talented female employees; restrict 50% of the talent pool; and spend money on avoidable recruitment campaigns?
- 5. What Are The Issues?
