Women’s Resource Centre have been awarded the Women Thrive Fund from Rosa to develop a much-requested signature coaching and mentoring program, led by and for Black women as part of their Network for Black Women Leaders (NBWL).
NBWL Thrive
The NBWL Thrive signature program seeks to address the underemployment and under promotion of Black women, by supporting the professional ambitions of NBWL members to take up a more senior role or progress within existing leadership position.
NBWL Thrive will be comprised of:
- Group coaching
- Recruiting and training mentors
- Learning, reflection and development
- Networking events
- Co-design groups
The first group coaching session will take place on 22 November and is set to offer the opportunity for NBWL members to take part in five coaching sessions, leveraging knowledge, strategies and experience. Like minded individuals working on a common theme, yet having different personal goals will be supported by a qualified leadership and development coach. The facilitated sessions will develop talents by integrating knowledge of the group, build confidence and share solutions that will enable you to navigate your working environment as a result move towards your leadership goals.
8 women will receive coaching starting on 22 November 2021.
This opportunity is open to Black women (women of the African diaspora / of African descent) based in the UK who are looking to enhance or develop their confidence and view of leadership.
