Women in Leadership
Professional development for female leaders

Become a successful female leader

• Reflect on yourself and hone your authentic leadership style
• Build your executive presence with video feedback and improvisation techniques
• Learn how to influence and negotiate business situations
• 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.

We have been working with the ESCP Business School for many years. Because of the great success of the Female Leadership Programme, we have recently increased the number of training sessions. ESCP's experience and customer focus ensure that after the programme our employees are highly motivated to tackle the next challenges and feel empowered by what they have learned in terms of leadership presence, communication and networking.

We’ve worked with the ESCP Business School in the framework of our internal programme supporting women from the early stage of their career and reinforcing inclusion awareness among employees, both women and men. The feedback we gathered really shows the level of satisfaction and the quality of the content proposed by ESCP and Prof. Marion Festing. We look forward to continuing our collaboration to keep the momentum and do more on diversity and inclusion.
