MODUL I:

Personality & Development

In the first module of the program, the focus is on developing awareness of one’s own competencies and strengths. Strengthening resilience and cultivating inner strength assist in maintaining resilience even in challenging situations. Participants learn how to effectively manage their resources to achieve their individual goals. The emphasis is on developing a personal values compass as the foundation for an authentic leadership style.

MODUL II:

Challenges & Opportunities

The second module of the ANNA Step-up program aims to identify obstacles and reservations that women in leadership positions encounter. A focus is placed on understanding power and influence and how these can be effectively utilized. We dive deeply into communication patterns and analyze work-life dynamics, which can pose a particular challenge for women in leadership positions.

MODUL III:

Leadership & Readiness

The application of emotional intelligence in leadership positions, as well as the establishment and nurturing of networks and partnerships, are the focal points of the third module. This module highlights how to navigate changes successfully and lead with confidence even in challenging times. Converting strategies into results and creating a specific action plan for entering a leadership career complete the seminar.

Step-up – Leadership Training

With our Step-up leadership seminar, we focus on the development of up-and-coming female executives. We are convinced that well-trained, female executives make companies more successful. Today’s studies show that a higher proportion of women in management improves a company’s profit and leads to increased sale rates. But how do you make the most of your company’s talent pool? Our new Step-up leadership seminar starts at the beginning: Our seminar provides female high potentials with useful tools to develop their individual leadership qualities. Highly qualified trainers and speakers convey relevant topics around the development of leadership competencies.

Participants develop a clear awareness of their own potential and learn how to meet the special challenges faced by women in leadership positions: This includes the targeted use of so-called feminine leadership competencies as well as a deep understanding of established power structures and how to deal with them. In the Step-up leadership seminar, our participants learn how to lead confidently even through uncertain times and motivate their team to achieve the best possible results.

For a successful company

Companies, as employers, are facing new challenges today. Offering above-average compensation is no longer sufficient to attract highly qualified future leaders. For current generations of employees, interesting career prospects and personal development are important factors. Participation in qualified training programs and leadership seminars makes your company appealing to skilled professionals as an employer.

Enhance your connection with your employees through individual development opportunities and create an in-house talent pool that expands your capabilities and strengthens your company’s future. Through mutual exchange, leaders benefit from cross-industry interactions that provide valuable external insights and impulses to you and your company.
