What past participants are saying about the course

Sara Slack from Exposure Ninja

Sara took the Women in Leadership course after being recommended she sign up by a colleague who had previously taken part.

Sara says: “I realised pretty soon after starting that my interest lay in how to be a more effective leader. I also wanted to better understand how company culture can be shaped and championed by individuals.

“The first piece of coursework – the Personal Development Plan ­– made me sit and consider my next career steps. It allowed me to see that taking that next career step was possible with some structure, which was a game-changer for me.”
