Why This Programme is Essential:
The utilities industry has long been male-dominated and this lack of diversity not only limits opportunities for talented women but also deprives organisations of the unique perspectives and skills that women bring to the table. We want to bridge this gap by providing tailored training to address the specific needs and challenges women face in the utilities sector, and to support them to support others around them.
Programme Overview
Our programme is based on our own experiences in utilities and built on feedback that senior women gave us. It is entirely virtual, offering easier accessibility for busy professionals and is structured around six key modules, each focusing on important aspects of line management and leadership:
Module 1: Management Foundations
The first module will welcome you to the programme and set the scene for the exciting things to come. We’ll think about our learning objectives and how to manage the challenges of life as a woman at work.
We’ll also quickly get stuck into the content – starting with psychological safety. We’ll explain how to get comfortable not having all the answers, and how to create a work environment where your team feel safe to express ideas, try new things and voice concerns without fear of negative consequences.
Module 2: Speaking Up & Leaning In
In this module, we will focus on learning strategies to build and maintain confidence in a variety of situations – including when you are the only woman in the room. We will explore the skills needed to present yourself assertively, handle difficult conversations, and make decisions with conviction.
You will explore the roots of imposter syndrome, learn techniques to overcome it, and develop a strong sense of self-worth and confidence, as well as understanding what other women around you may be experiencing.
Module 3: Impactful Conversations
We’ll also take the time to think about the benefits of coaching and how it can support your own career.
Module 4: Performance Management
Module 5: Navigating Careers
Module 6: Commercial Savviness & Close
In this final module, we’ll get stuck into some bite sized skills needed as you climb the career ladder. You’ll focus on topics such as influencing, stakeholder engagement, decision making and financial awareness, through the lens of the changing utilities landscape.
Then we’ll take some time to reflect on our WUN Drive journey !
