It's a complete package that combines training, coaching, mentorship, and ongoing support. Our mission is to empower women to excel in their careers and conquer the unique challenges they face. SHELeads targets participants within the European Union.

SHELeads is tailored for female executives across various industries who are dedicated to advancing their careers, making a positive impact, and thriving in all aspects of life. Whether you're an executive, manager, or professional aiming to enhance your leadership skills and navigate male-dominated work environments, you've come to the right place.

We welcome women at different stages of their careers. We've had experienced leaders, ambitious junior managers transitioning into leadership roles, super moms returning after maternity leave, and senior women executives seeking career advancement or change.

The ages of our participants range from 25+ to 50+.

We’ve already worked with female executives from 17 different nationalities.

This awesome variety not only adds a ton of value to the program but also brings diverse perspectives and insights into the professional world and fosters valuable connections among our participants.

We'll meet up online every week for 90 minutes, creating a safe and supportive space where you can learn, get support, find inspiration, and stay motivated. Between sessions, you'll dive into practical exercises and assignments that'll help you soak up knowledge, sharpen your skills, and embrace fresh perspectives. Alongside the group sessions, you'll also get six private one-on-one sessions with Alena to tackle specific challenges as they pop up and work towards your unique development goals.
