House of Beaufort has developed a strong relationship with the British Chamber of Commerce in Slovakia and is delighted to partner with them in the delivery of our successful Storytelling Workshop on 19 September 2019, aimed at women business leaders and entrepreneurs across the Republic.

 

Time and time again, from petroleum organisations in the Middle East to leading financial institutions in London, we have seen the transformative potential of this workshop to  encourage and empower  a group of professional women to think differently about how they approach particular career challenges, including what might be holding them back and what can drive them forward as leaders, or leaders in waiting.

Not only do the individual women themselves benefit, but L&D who frequently attend our sessions, also gain critical insights into the pressures and obstacles that women are facing in developing their careers to the next level. With the feedback we collate after each workshop, L&D can subsequently integrate coaching and training opportunities to address issues raised during the workshop and ultimately build stronger talent pipelines for their businesses.
