Women in leadership

Speaking up, making decisions and leading digital projects with confidence.

WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP, Speaking up, making decisions and leading digital projects with confidence.

Technical skills open doors; leadership is what lets you walk through them. This programme helps women speak up, defend their ideas and lead projects and teams in the digital sector, with confidence and while staying true to themselves.

Daring to take your place

The focus is on what makes a difference day to day: pitching a project in a few minutes, making the case to a panel or a client, negotiating a budget or a deadline, running a meeting, giving and receiving feedback. Every session ends with a role play in front of the group, to progress quickly and with confidence.

Participants meet women who lead companies, teams or associations and who speak frankly about their journey, the obstacles they faced and what helped them move forward. Each one leaves with her own action plan: a career goal, the steps to reach it and people who can support her along the way.

I finally dared to pitch my project to a panel. The role plays gave me a confidence I had never had.

Hearing women leaders speak frankly about their obstacles showed me that I also belong where decisions are made.
