Large U.S. Banking Institution Investing in Women Leaders

This client was looking for a unique program to provide a diverse group of women with the skills and abilities to grow into senior leadership roles within the firm. Learning Tree customized an immersion program to empower women leaders to refine their skills in a real-world environment rather than a single course learning experience. While these women have already gained greater representation in middle management positions, this unique program helps them take the next step to more senior positions at strategic levels. What makes this client’s customized approach more successful than others is the use of a ‘facilitator-coach’ model to assist learners in translating how the concepts apply to them. This approach focuses more on practical application of concepts taught in class to their unique, real-world environment. In addition to this practical approach, each attendee develops a post-event action plan with measurable goals and receives additional guidance from their coach upon their return to work.
