Equaliser Foundation (Egyenlítő Alapítvány) is working to support women to get into leadership positions, announced its first mentoring program with the name #insteadofflowers during its annual Women’s Day Conference in 2022.  Graduates and university students got the opportunity meet at least once with experienced female role models who are members or part of the Foundation’s network. 40 mentor-mentee couples had inspirational meetings, shared their knowledge and built networks.

Based on this positive experience we decided to start a well-established mentor program in 2023. A program where mentors and mentees work together during a period of time, towards a specific mentoring objective.

In 2023, within the program, 60 mentor-mentee pairs, in 2024, 92 pairs participated in collaborative work for nearly 8 months.

Hungary has one of the lowest levels of female representation in company leadership roles in the EU with 10.5% compared to 31.6% EU average (EIGE, 2022) and our mission is to help strengthen our position through a new mentorship programme. In order to drive change it is important for those organisations based in Hungary, who are dedicated to gender equality, to collaborate and support female talent to become leaders.

To make this happen, we are aiming to connect 100 mentors with mentees and build a platform where shared experiences, knowledge and networks will help to develop the next cohort of female leaders in Hungary. Equaliser will be there every step of the way, providing the guidance and framework to ensure the mentoring program is a success for everyone participating.

TARGET AUDIENCE

I believe in equal opportunities—not only between men and women but also in other areas that may seem unequal, not just in corporate leadership but in all aspects of life. I believe in the transformative power of coaching and in the collaborations that can emerge between the business sector, the coaching profession, and social organizations. For me, every encounter and co-creation is defined by learning from one another and the shared experience of generating new insights. I look forward with curiosity to the learning opportunities that this year’s mentoring program would bring!

Self-reflection is my thing, and as a mentor, I love sharing what I’ve learned—whether it’s about career moves or figuring out your own path. As a coach, I’ve realized that great questions matter more than perfect answers. Right now, I’m exploring what freedom actually feels like. In 2025, I stepped away from my career to start a new chapter—still a work in progress.

Head of Portfolio and Project Management at E.ON

I have been working at E.ON since 2024 April, and this new chapter in my life just began as this is a completely new sector in my career path. I started my career in the financial sector as a corporate consultant, and then made a hard switch to the IT sector. Over the management positions at IBM, project management was constantly part of my duties, where international relations were an essential part of each of my projects. Thanks to projects involvement in the Nordic, DACH, UKI and SPGI regions, I was able to experience various areas of international cooperation, and the challenges and successes inherent in it. I worked in Ireland and was fully committed to international positions, so I fully support various international areas of cooperation, and that is why I have been nominated to the position of Central Rollout Lead of the EAM program on the Hungarian side at E.ON, in paralel with my current position. I conducted research at the IBM Vác site, that examined the logistics model of mainframes supporting “supercomputing”, that is how I became an economist with a master’s degree in Supply Chain Management. I later worked as a Project, Program and PMO manager in client-facing positions at a telecommunications and IT company, where we built our operations along the principles of PMI. I like diversity in project management, projects are different, but I believe that the conditions for successful project management need to be established as a formal way. In this spirit, we spent our first year together at DSO with the PPM team, to create the basic pillars for DSO project managers and project supporters, so that they have a framework at their disposal that supports their daily work.

The world has come a long way since then, but the ‘one of the boys’ theory still holds sway in many places, which means that if you want to be successful, you have to assimilate. I know that there is another way, where we can build on our female qualities to become successful by building cooperation, tolerance and trust. I am keen to support young, talented women and, as many of my current clients are women in senior positions, I have experience of the challenges faced by them.
