This workshop forms part of our young women and girls leadership programme. We believe that young women at critical junctures in their lives should have access to empowering tools, inspiration and community to help them soar in their lives and future careers and equip them to become our next generation and leaders.
Confidence in yourself and developing courage is critical to be able to move through fears to a new and bright future. This workshop is an opportunity to learn from others outside of your normal sphere, get inspired and give yourself a courage boost to get going on your plans for the future. In addition, it helps you to develop confidence not only in yourself but also in others.
At each Aspire event, 50% of the participants sponsor the other 50% to attend. Every paying participant is a sponsor for someone who doesn’t have the means at the moment for whatever reason to attend an Aspire event, providing them with access to the same enriching experience and networking opportunities as the other. It’s where one woman’s investment multiplies into a community of support and encouragement, a ripple effect that will extend far beyond the event itself. Learn more here
The Constance Boardroom & Lounge at Coldbath Square, London, UK
This elegant boardroom in our building is named after Lady Constance Lytton, a prominent figure in the women’s suffrage movement in the UK. This room is designed to embody Constance Lytton’s courage and inspire the next generation of women leaders. It is an ideal setting for training young women and girls, providing them with the inspiration and skills they need to champion gender equality. Let it be a space where the torch of activism is passed on, where young minds are fuelled with determination to make a difference.
This workshop is for high potential young women age 14 to 16 years old who have ambitions, goals and dreams to be successful and make a difference in the world. Places booked for this course need to be done so by a responsible adult teacher, parent or guardian. Young women attending also need to be accompanied by an adult (there are plenty of great places in our building for adults accompanying attendees to relax, connect with others and catch up on emails). We are also able to provide letters to schools about this course.
"It was a pure inspiration. I have the empowerment to change static views and engage further in equality for women. Every woman needs to engage with Aspire and every woman in power needs to step up for those who can't. It crosses borders, it crosses sectors, it unites a flame inside you to stand up, raise the roof, to make a change with a massive support crew in tow.
“Aspire’s events made an excellent and positive impact to the point where my head is on straight, my aspirations are clear and people are queuing up for my attention. Oh - and I've become one of those women who can stop misbehaving children with a look - I used to be such a push over.”
“You tell the truth as it is and share the journey of how to move from the reality of day to day experience to the aspirational end game vision - that really helps.”
“The best investment in training and development and a day of my time, that I have made over a 30 year career (which included a medical degree and an MBA!).”
"No messing around, you get straight to the core issues. No awful role plays or endless feedback sessions which don't add value."
“Our female leaders are thriving because of attending the Aspire programme. I am now counting on them to pay that forward by supporting, encouraging and coaching other women who are trying to find their purpose, voice and authentic leadership style in their careers”
"Truly inspirational, and personally for me, the workshop was life changing. One of the best workshops I have ever attended; an extremely engaging day where you went away with key action points rather than just theory."
"I’m being bolder because of Aspire. Totally empowered!"
"Great content, fantastic energy. Thanks for your amazing vision and for taking us all along with you. The vibe though Avtrade has changed since I stumbled across Aspire. Today we’re a force for change, inspiration and encouragement to leaders (whatever gender) and to all staff across the company."
"Absolutely do it. Come on the event and be committed to making sure that you do take action and keep connected with the women that you meet on this event because that's really where the power lies."
