Interactive Workshops
Typically run as 3 full days, the programme uses a blend of group workshops and one to one coaching sessions with exercises for individual reflection, to help integrate practical actions back in the workplace. The programme can be run virtually as a good alternative to in-person interactive workshops.
Content is designed around ECC’s Career Success Model and typically features sponsor presentations, a Role Model Panel, reverse mentoring and the opportunity for participants to share their ideas with the organisation for what would help enhance female career progression.
We are known for our ability to tailor the content to each client ensuring that it is an integral part of the overall diversity and inclusion strategy.
Virtual Workshops
As an alternative to the in-person interactive workshops. They are designed:
- For small groups
- To take full advantage of the technology available
- For participant accountability
- With mixed content and activities to keep the day refreshing
The blended approach includes:
- Setting up a workflow group: Allows materials to be sent in real time.
- Enables participants to complete exercises away from their screens
- Breaks and exercises away from the screen
- Mobile peer coaching discussions
- ECC email hotline
Our preferred platform to use is Zoom, however we can also run the virtual workshop on different platforms.
Sponsor Endorsement
to share the organisation’s strategy for gender balance so that it is clear that the programme is part of a diversity initiative and not an activity focused on ‘fixing the women’.
Role Model Panel
to provide inspiring stories from colleagues, both men and women a few levels above who share their career journey and can demonstrate how they have progressed their career alongside a busy life in general.
Manager Involvement
to engage and provide support to the programme and its outputs. We help them to hold critical career conversations with their participants.
Men as Allies
to help participants to have structured conversations with male colleagues, encouraging them to engage with the gender debate and champion diversity.
An Opportunity for the Women
to share their ideas on what more the organisation could do to support the female career, helping them to have a voice and feel empowered.
