For Employers

Build the senior women leaders your organisation needs.

Women stall most often at the step from manager to director and above. Rise & Lead Academy is designed for exactly that step. Your leaders stay in their roles, bring real challenges from your organisation into every module, and return with tools they use on Monday morning.

What your organisation gains.

A ready pipeline.

Eighteen months of structured development for the women you want in senior roles.

Work on your business.

Module projects and the Capstone tackle a real challenge your organisation sets.

Measurable progress.

Multi-source feedback at the start and end, with a summary report for HR (with the participant's consent).

Retention.

Investing visibly in women leaders keeps them.

An executive network.

Your leaders learn alongside peers, senior guest lecturers and board members from across Europe.
