“Dora was excellent, my perception is that she knew how to capture attention very well throughout the talk and with very practical advice.
People told us that they loved that it was so useful, with tools and that there was not so much “fuss”. The truth is that it was super good and with high online participation.”PepsiCo HR Culture & DEI: Clara Gil
Female Leader Essentials
After over a decade of teaching, mentoring and developing leaders I came to the conclusion that women are different at the workplace. The way women deal with issues, conflicts, relationships, their overthinking tendencies, giving visibility of their progress and achievement, the way they manage stress, time and their energy, all differ from a man’s approach.
I’m not saying that one way better than the other, just that they are different.
FEMALE LEADER ESSENTIALS was born to support female employees (any person who identifies as women) and to respond to their needs in order to make their life easier in the workplace, help with self-confidence issues, overcome ruminating tendencies and teach strategies on how to become happier in the workplace without being feeling constantly exhausted and pressured to succeed all the time on all fronts.
Finally, its goal is to empower and enable them to occupy seats in top management and C-level positions if that’s their ambition.
The current studies predict that we need 60 years to reach gender parity at the workplace. The Female Leader Essentials Program ambition is to reduce this extremely long timeline.
To create a long-term impact on company’s gender diversity landscape, our PROGRAM provides workshops for female employees and female leaders on the following topics:
- Build a last long strong self-confidence to reach your career goal
- Turn Impostor Syndrome to you benefit and never let to stop you
- Manage Stress in a unique female way and it will never be an issue again
- Become highly skilled and confident to handle any difficult conversations
- Learn to manage your energy level to be proud of your own productivity
If you believe that’s what your company needs
