Diversity, particularly gender diversity, is important to organisational capability and business performance. Traditional interventions have not yet worked to close the gender leadership gap, eliminate bias and address the leadership needs of women. Women who have participated in these programs report promotions and increased responsibility at a rate of over 85%.
How is it different?
Lighthouse have partnered with Leading Women, one of the world’s premier consulting firms specialising in women’s advancement, to bring a sophisticated, research-based understanding of leadership and gender related career enablers. This understanding is reflected in our programs, which are designed for the specific needs of women at different levels of an organisation.
Close The Missing 33%™ by demonstrating strategic and financial acumen
Eliminate typical barriers to facilitate more women in leadership roles
Strengthening the ability to engage and align others as by initiating and leading change
Develop the ability to connect the team’s work to the business of the organisation
Three programs, one goal
To help organisations reduce the leadership gap and women to advance, we offer three key programs:
Breakthrough leadership for Senior Leaders
Strengthen strategic and financial acumen enabling participants to be seen in succession conversations as viable candidates for executive positions.
Purpose Power Presence for Middle Managers
Positions middle managers for high performance as business leaders as well as people leaders.
Ready Set Lead for Emerging Leaders
Lays the foundation for future leadership success by providing key tools and knowledge for making the transition from individual contributor to manager of individuals.
As a CEO, or as an executive or director for that matter, if women aren’t proportionately represented throughout your organization, you aren’t facing a women’s issue — you’re facing a talent development issue with business implications. And so it’s important to bring your personal commitment and the same level of organizational accountability to that challenge as you would to any business issue.
