Women’s Development

Do you want more of your talented female staff to progress?
Are you failing to meet your Gender Pay Gap target?
Do you want to attract more women to your organisation?

Springboard is the award-winning personal and professional development programme for women. Individuals speak of a new sense of purpose, an open approach to change and a more positive attitude. Employers report being delighted with the changes to their staff, who show a more focused and positive outlook, offering solutions rather than problems as well as increased motivation.

This 4 day programme is transformational. Following the programme, 84% of Women report being more open to change, 83% report a positive attitude, 83% report increased confidence/self-esteem, 79% have taken on more responsibility and 75% report an increase in problem solving.

Springboard Training

As a Springboard trainer, I’m licensed to deliver in-person programmes with up to 32 participants per programme on your premises/at a venue of your choice. The programme is delivered over 4 full days, 1 day per month with participants attending all 4 days. All participants receive a workbook  which they complete between each session.

I’ve run several Springboard programmes and the feedback from participants is extremely positive. More importantly, many of the participants have gone on to secure promotions within their organisation, enabling recruiters to retain staff and build a talent pipeline.

Springboard is for women who want to take control, become more assertive, increase their confidence & build themselves a more positive attitude in both their work and home lives.

Contact me for a no-obligation conversation to explore how Springboard could support your female staff. Alternatively, contact me If you’d like to discuss a bespoke development programme.

Strengths

Do your leaders currently fulfil their true potential, contributing to organisational success and personal growth?
Do you want to maximise your team’s performance and capabilities, develop them and enable them to flourish at work?
Would you like to increase retention and improve your talent pipeline?

I’ve worked for many years as a licensed Strengths practitioner. Staff who understand their Strengths are better able to fulfil their potential at work. Organisations enjoy the benefits of motivated staff employed in roles where they flourish.

Leaders learn to harness and develop  the strengths of the teams they lead so that staff are deployed in ways that support the organisation’s strategic direction, the team’s talents are nurtured and turnover is reduced. 

I deliver online and in-person bespoke Strengths workshops with one to one profile feedback. I have previously delivered workshops for academic and professional services staff at the following universities: Warwick, King’s London, LSE and Monash, Southampton, DMU and Royal Holloway.
