Curriculum - Career Excel

A PROGRAM DESIGNED BY WOMEN FOR WOMEN

Career Excel is designed by two highly successful women who share their strategies to benefit women at every age and stage of their career. The program reflects the underlying, and not-so-obvious, challenges that typically hold women back more so than men. Research indicates that most soft skills are gender neutral and fail to address gender-specific “derailers”–skill sets like assertion and self-promotion that men don’t necessarily need training for, but that adversely impact women. Compounding the problem, most training programs fail to address gender dynamics. Career Excel is uniquely structured to solve for these deficits by focusing on female perspectives and how to manage differing viewpoints that create barriers for personal growth.
