The Women Leadership Accelerator is an intensive programme that supercharges the leadership and management skills of women who are pushing digital innovation.
The accelerator includes tailored, immersive programming, support and coaching to participants throughout the year. In addition to learning leadership skills and tools for navigating change, participants will focus on a challenge specific to their careers, whether an obstacle to overcome or an aspirational goal to achieve, either within their organizations or as an independent project.
