Master Class: Women in Leadership

You may have strong ideas but feel they do not always carry the weight they deserve. Perhaps you work hard, deliver results, and lead effectively, yet still find yourself having to work harder than others to be recognised or heard. You may already be managing your role and your team well, but want to strengthen your leadership presence, influence, and confidence in stepping fully into senior leadership.

As more women step into leadership roles across sectors, it has become increasingly clear that success is not just about capability or competence. Women often navigate additional, unspoken challenges – expectations, bias, visibility, credibility, and internal pressures such as self-doubt or imposter syndrome. To lead with confidence and impact, women need space to reflect, sharpen their leadership approach, and develop strategies that work within real organisational contexts.

This Women in Leadership training course is designed to support women in strengthening their leadership identity, confidence, and effectiveness. It focuses on developing the skills, mindset, and self-awareness required to lead with clarity, credibility, and influence, while also preparing you to navigate both internal and external leadership challenges.

The programme offers a powerful opportunity for you to step forward with greater confidence, strengthen your leadership voice, and lead others with purpose, authenticity, and impact.

• Practical tools to increase self-awareness, confidence, and self-management
