We're excited to share highlights from our recent C-Suite Programme, which took place earlier this month!   We spent time with some incredible and inspiring women, exploring how to navigate career progression, strengthen impactful communication, and embrace authentic senior leadership.   As one attendee shared:   “We explored our skills, strengths, and leadership styles - identifying patterns that propel us forward or hold us back in our careers. We now know where we thrive in times of change, where to get support or take the lead, and we came away with clear goals for our future leadership development.”   A huge thank you to the Birdsoup team for expertly facilitating this programme, and to our sponsor, the DPP, for making it possible.   If you’d like to sign up for our 2026 Programme, please click here: https://lnkd.in/eEm-wKuy   #RiseWiB #WomenInLeadership #CSuite #ProfessionalGrowth #WomenInBroadcast #WomenInTech #LeadershipDevelopment

Rise mentorship programme is one of the best things that happened to me last year. First of all, it gave me an opportunity to know honest, inspiring and professional Steve Russell :) Second, it gave me time and space to think about personal goals and opportunity. Third - it really made me feel a part of a large community of women, working in media all over the world. I strongly recommend to join, if you a woman in media world! (Application is simple, program is online and free of charge!)
