Breaking through
The Glass Ceiling

This interactive Anderson training course offers a unique opportunity for emerging women leaders to take a balanced insight into:

… the reality of the legendary The Glass Ceiling that curtails promotion
… the mechanisms for managing within a Glass Ceiling tradition
… and ‘tools’ for influencing cultural change at work.

Accepting The Glass Ceiling as unbreakable cannot be an option. The percentage of women in work is increasing - 80% across Europe. High rates of participation, as well as high rates of employment, are key measures of women’s status. Key, is high educational attainment which will help close pay gaps women experience globally. Attitudes, skills and knowledge, are especially relevant for women in work.  Grasping responsibility, marshaling people, and innovating creatively and strategically is the new ethos.
