Whether you’re starting out in your career, a first time manager, looking for your next career move, or simply want to build self awareness and confidence to work out who you are as a leader, this programme will provide the time, space and guidance to own your career, embrace your identity and uncover your authentic self.
“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are” Brene Brown
You are likely to be curious about personal development and developing a growth mindset.
You want to better understand yourself so that you become increasingly comfortable with who you are, loosening the reliance on any ‘masks’ you wear and role-model the practice of being true to yourself with those around you.
You want to work with like-minded women on a similar journey who will support, and share with the same generosity that you intend to.
You want to build confidence and drive your career forward in a way that is aligned with your values, needs and purpose.
You may already be a leader with the job title to match, you may be about to embark on your leadership journey stepping into your first leadership role, you may strive to call yourself a leader in the future.
We believe anyone can be a leader regardless of your job title.

What previous participants have said:
"I can't thank you enough for your sessions. I've loved them and I can't tell you how much clearer and happier I feel about myself. I now understand the journey that I need to take to gain further confidence by 'just doing it' rather than overthinking it! I'm looking forward to putting some time to all the resources that you've shared. I'm going to go over my course notes to create messages for me around my desk, so I can keep you and the rest of the group's words in my head when I put myself out of my comfort zone again."
