In the fast-paced world of business, investing in programmes that empower and elevate women in leadership positions is crucial. The Bayes Global Women’s Leadership Programme (GWLP) stands as a testament to this commitment.

This unique initiative designed to provide women with the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to work towards their own version of success. The programme is led by the Dr Janina Steinmetz, and made up of an Executive Board including Bayes MBA students.

Cultivating a supportive community

At the core of the GWLP is a vibrant and inclusive community. Here, individuals find like-minded peers who share their ambitions and aspirations. These connections provide invaluable guidance and support throughout their career journey.

I was drawn to the programme's commitment to inspire, equip, and connect women who are or aspire to be leaders. The programme also has a focus on providing practical skills, mentoring, and network-building opportunities, all of which are essential for successful leadership. Furthermore, the programme's emphasis on gender-balanced leadership resonated strongly with my own values and aspirations.

Events that inspire action

The GWLP transcends the confines of traditional education. Regular events, workshops, and seminars provide opportunities for networking, learning, and skill-building. These gatherings serve as catalysts for personal development and facilitate connections with industry leaders and experts.

Guided Growth Through Peer Mentorship

One of the programme’s standout features is its peer mentoring initiatives. Participants are paired with seasoned mentors who provide invaluable guidance and share insights from their own journeys. GWLP peer mentoring programme not only fosters personal and professional growth but also creates a network of empowered women poised to overcome any obstacle.

Being the Global Women's Leadership Programme scholar for FT-MBA ‘23/24, I am looking forward to catering to my passion to break the discriminatory barriers against women in business and support the high-potential divergent women at Bayes to take a step closer towards their aspirations. I am excited to be a part of this excellent program that focuses on holistic development and allows the students to pursue their specialized journeys by structuring their own program.
