Change starts here
Improving gender balance is not simply a moral imperative. It’s a strategic necessity proven by countless studies to boost innovation, reputation, retention and profitability.
Yet, as we climb the corporate ladder, women’s representation continues to dwindle, costing businesses talent, productivity and engagement.
At Stephanie Aitken Consulting, our proprietary methodology is data-driven and designed to deliver measurable results. We stand apart by beginning every journey with a simple but powerful principle: listen first. We start by enquiring into what your women actually want, rather than building policies and processes based on assumptions and generic data.
Our approach is rooted in inclusivity: advancing women’s progress while allowing for all employees to feel respected and engaged, not alienated. From there, we provide tailored support at each stage of their career and encourage a corporate culture that enables everyone to thrive.
Ready to unleash change?
The Stephanie Aitken Consultancy 4-stage methodology will help you to retain and progress more women
We start by helping you to uncover exactly what it is that your women want and need: no assumptions, no misconceptions – just a clear understanding based on quantitative and qualitative insight. We then apply this knowledge to help you achieve paradigm shifting results by removing the barriers to progress; creating tailored programmes of support that reflect the needs of your people and culture. We then help you to embed systemic change to ensure that your results are sustainable.
As examples, our award-nominated Women’s Leadership Programme has been recognised for excellence, while the data shows that our mid-level, mixed-gender Career Catalyst Programme has improved participants’ clarity, confidence, and career ownership. Both initiatives help boost progress and retention.
Whether you’re a senior executive wanting to improve gender diversity in your organisation, a development professional looking to enhance the career prospects of your people or a DEI champion seeking motivating inspiration for your initiatives: we can help.
