THE WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP PROGRAMME
Empowering women to take the lead.
Dedicated to the future of female leadership, we equip ambitious business women with a complete leadership toolkit to increase their leadership impact, and create lasting personal and professional change.
THE PROGRAMME
This programme is designed for female leaders and managers, in a senior management position, who are looking to elevate their leadership impact and unlock higher levels of growth for individually, and for their business.
Delivered by two successful women leaders, with experience of running leadership retreats with female leaders at all levels, the programme will provide key insight into the thinking, beliefs and behaviours of successful women leaders and the real challenges that can occur in a constantly changing business environment.
WOMEN OCCUPY ONLY 7% OF THE CEO POSITIONS IN THE FORTUNE 500.
Six Leadership Modules
You will gain access to six full days of content covering key leadership topics developed through years of working with women leaders at all levels.
1-2-1 Coaching
Whether on our online programme, or part of our face to face delivery, you will receive an individual 1-2-1 coaching session with either Sarah or Laura.
Leadership Toolkits
From each module you will be provided with a complete toolkit and set of resources to integrate into your business in between each module.
"Every session has been eye opening, I have learned so much about myself, my team and my management style. I now have a much deeper understanding of how to adapt my approach to different people and situations to influence in the best possible way. The training with Duo has completely elevated my management impact."

CHOOSE YOUR EXPERIENCE
The Women In Leadership Programme has three experiences to choose from, depending on your learning preferences and budget.
You can either work with us via our online pre-recorded programme, via a hybrid version which includes six live group online coaching sessions, or as part of our face to face programme with other female leaders, run twice each year. Please note, our face to face programme is currently on hold due to the current pandemic, but we have spaces on our hybrid live online programme.
Before deciding anything, we know how important it is to get to know the people you choose to work with, so we put together a free recorded webinar as a taster session, in partnership with Scale Up North East.
In this free recorded session we look at a couple of the topics we cover in the programme, and focus on the thinking, beliefs and behaviours of successful women leaders, and the real challenges that can occur in a constantly changing business environment.
