Women, Responsibility and Management: Progress, Together.

Women, Responsibility and Management: Progress, Together.

Women, Responsibility and Management is a multi part series of workshops and gatherings to support women who have responsibility for managing things, people and households. Each session is independent/stand alone.

Do you feel responsible for making things happen, for problem solving, setting the agenda and having the answers? Being expected to hold responsibility and authority can be awesome, motivating and exciting but also tiring and overwhelming at times. It’s not easy having to keep things ‘together’. This series of gently facilitated small online gatherings and workshops will give you the opportunity to seek sanctuary and solidarity, to put down the weight of responsibility and seek support from women who can relate.

Progress, Together: Action Learning Sets are peer problem solving groups inspired by the world renowned work of Reg Revans, these sessions will be an opportunity for group members to work through an issue or challenge they are facing through supportive but probing questioning. It is not about members giving advice or trying to provide answers, the focus is on learning from experience and taking action. This format offers the potential for rich, relevant and highly applied learning.

Upcoming stand-alone sessions in this series are: June 22 and 29.

This event is FREE.
