Advanced Women in Leadership Masterclass: Strategic Influence at the Top

Designed for women already carrying senior responsibility, this masterclass moves beyond individual leadership habits into organisational strategy, board level engagement, and cross functional influence. Participants work through case studies drawn from finance, energy, manufacturing, and public sector settings to sharpen strategic thinking and enterprise level decision making. The programme also addresses the specific challenges senior women face in male dominated executive committees and boardrooms.
