  • Grow through executive coaching and targeted exercises
  • Push your career to the next level
  • Become part of a diverse network of female leaders

This programme is designed for female leaders and entrepreneurs. It is also ideal for female talents aspiring to take on leadership roles.

What makes our ESCP Women in Leadership Programme so unique?

We have designed our female leadership programme by women, for women. During four days on-site in Berlin, you will engage in debates, and share experiences. Immersing yourself in interactive exercises and coaching will help you quickly establish trust with other participants.

A comfortable ambience allows you to reflect on your experiences, strengths and challenges. This environment provides you with a safe space to hone your leadership style and skills. It also provides room to focus on unique challenges female leaders face, especially in traditionally male organisations and industries.

The trust and relationships you establish during the programme extend beyond the four days on campus. Virtual follow-up sessions, peer support, and community events ensure that your journey to growth continues.

The programme gave me a lot of insights, in particular how to develop a more powerful leadership style and improve my executive presence. There is also one learning I would share about negotiation effectiveness: “Ask what you want!” That makes clear where you want to go and what you want to achieve.
