Our Courses for Companies

Everyone has biases, some of them, we are aware of, but most of them are hidden from us, we just don’t know that we have them and we act under their supervision. Stereotypes, whether they were ready made for us, humans long ago or whether we attined them through experiences are important in our everyday lives. This quick way of thinking that builds on schemas can save our life.

But there are many more occasions and situations, especially at work, where a more analytic, more thoughtful approach would serve the purpose better. We need to make ourselves aware of these situations, so the hidden biases do not work against our interest. If we manage to bring important and serious decisions overcoming our biases, only then we will be able to fulfill our human potential and can let and help other people fulfill their potential. We otherwise risk that only the traditionally predetermined opportunities are available to us and to our organisations. You might start to realise how this kills innovation and progress.

Company trainings

Management trainings to increase sensitivity

Increased competition makes it crucial to find and keep talent. The world is changing and is moving faster. Homogenous teams are unable to react fast and effectively. Leaders need to know how to benefit from diversity and therefore create a company that is more agile, faster to innovate and faster to enter markets.
The leader is the one who can create an environment for there to be no obstacles in front of his teams, his teams to win quickly and agilely and capable of switching. If a leader doesn’t help or limits his teams with his non-inclusive attitude, it will cost a company a lot in the short and long term. The successful leader is the one who has the most successful team.

What kind of a leader are you?
There are many different types of managerial styles. None is good or bad, just honest or fake!

When we are responsible for a team, consistency is crucial. Our colleagues are the mirror image of ourselves, and if we, leaders display honest and ethical behaviour, our team members will follow suit.

Balance - Inclusive Leadership Programme for Women Talent

“ Take your seat at the table and lead purposefully!”

It is proven that inclusive and diverse companies enjoy a double digit advantage on their homogeneous peers, when it comes to effectiveness, revenue from innovative products or many other financial results.
One important side of diversity is the equal opportunities that women should have at work and in society. We believe and see that women make a huge difference to companies when it comes to more intelligent group decisions, resilience, cooperation and competitiveness.
In Hungarian companies, the percentage of women in top management is still under 10%. Way behind the EU average, and this threatens our competitiveness.
Our aim is to make top management more appealing to women and open up doors for them in organisations that could hugely benefit from women’s participation in decision making.

We aim to achieve this via these 3 ways:

  • We prepare strategic plans for the management of companies so that they can create a more inclusive and diverse management, where everybody can thrive and contribute at any level, including women.
  • We showcase female leadership talent so the other women can be inspired and find their ambition to succeed.
  • We deliver a female leadership development programme for companies who wish to develop strong female management talent. We cover topics like media communications, emotional intelligence, self awareness, inclusive leadership practices, self branding, styling and we bring in important role models to learn from, to further inspire participants.

A woman leader is neither better, nor worse than a male one. Often not even different at all. One thing is hugely different though for a female leader. Acceptance, credibility, trust and inclusion by colleagues, leaders and partners.
We have scientific evidence that women’s achievements are perceived less strongly than that of men. That women get interrupted 4 times as many times as men do. That a woman’s CV will be almost 30% less worthy of an interview than the same CV with a male name on the top..

Women grow up and spend many years in their career without seeing successful, desirable role models ahead of them. This hinders their ambition and thus their chances for management roles.
It is a well known phenomenon that women who work at companies where there are only male top managers, do not see themselves as part of that group, even more strongly, they do not even want to be part of that group. They do not want to become one of the men, and therefore the company is struggling to promote even talented women. This of course is also the result of the pressures of society and family, even though highly inclusive companies have a much easier time recruiting and promoting female talent.

Women are a minority in Hungary when it comes to leadership positions. Therefore a company that wants to have more female managers needs to change their culture and processes significantly in order to allow for women to be successful. They need to support women towards the road to management more intensively than the men.

Women need extra support today to succeed, and we can help that with training. The organisation needs to change, needs to become more sensitive to the needs of the so far underrepresented groups in management, and needs to give extra help to these groups, like women.

Our Foundations experienced and successful female leaders went through this journey before, they have personal stories and experiences they share and developed individual copying tactics that can help the women coming after them to become the next leaders..

The name of our programme is Equilibrium, as we believe that a woman (just like a man) can only be sustainably happy and successful if she is balanced. If she is at the “right place”, “she can give herself fully” and is not playing roles, does not try to become a man.
With our programme we help the participants to find their own individual journey, their own identity as a leader, and we show them how to turn their perceived weaknesses into strengths.

We offer 2 different programmes for 2 different levels:

  1. Getting ready for middle management
  2. Getting ready for top management
