U-LEAD

We review ULEAD's Career Architecture framework together, share challenges and experiences to support each other (e.g. where you are, what's blocking you, and what to do next).

What happens:

• Small group of 3 women per session
• Open conversation around Career Architecture
• Peer sharing on challenges, blockers, and next steps
• All participants leave with full access to ULEAD's Career Architecture Program, free of charge.
• Phones away. Fully offline. Real conversations only.

Who this is for:

• Women navigating a career transition
• Women seeking a new role or promotion
• Women looking for peer support and honest dialogue

Program:
Participants receive full access to ULEAD's Career Architecture Program, a 10-hour, self-paced curriculum structured across three modules:

• Self-awareness — identifying your strengths, growth areas, and the direction that aligns with both
• Practical toolkit — resume, networking, and a structured approach to the job search
• Resilience and confidence — tools to sustain momentum through the process

The program is fully funded and built by ULEAD, available at no cost to all participants.

Why it matters:
Women hold just 29% of C-suite roles despite making up nearly half of entry-level workforces. In 2025, only 93 women were promoted to manager for every 100 men. Four in ten entry-level women have received no promotion, stretch assignment, or development opportunity in the past two years.

Places are limited to 3 participants per session.

Join a small group of women for drinks and an open conversation about financial literacy (= ability to make informed, confident decisions about your money across five areas: Earn, Save, Invest, Protect, Plan).

Phones away. This is a deliberately offline, in-person session to build human connection.

• Small group of 3 women per session
• Open conversation around ULEAD's Financial Literacy framework
• Peer sharing on challenges, blockers, and next steps

• Women looking for peer support and honest dialogue

Programme structure:
All participants receive full complimentary access to ULEAD's Financial Literacy Program, a 10-hour self-paced curriculum across 5 modules: Earn, Save, Invest, Protect, Plan.

Why it matters:
Across all 27 EU member states, men show higher financial literacy than women by an average of 18 percentage points. Only 12% of women globally invest in stocks or mutual funds, compared to 28% of men. In Europe, women earn 12.7% less than their male counterparts and are more likely to work in industries where their work is systematically underpaid.

• Women who want to step into leadership and are taking management roles
• Women looking for peer support

Programme structure:
All participants receive full access to ULEAD's Future Leadership Program, a 10-hour self-paced curriculum.

Why it matters:
Women represent just 22% of the AI workforce and 12% of AI researchers globally. In the green economy, companies with greater gender diversity in management reduced CO₂ emissions around 5% more since the Paris Agreement — yet women remain locked out of the leadership roles where these decisions are made. Women leave tech at 45% higher rates than men, with lack of career advancement as the primary driver.

Why it matters:
Burnout affects 42% of women in the workplace and among senior-level women, that figure climbs to 60%. Nearly eight in ten women of colour at the senior level report frequent burnout. Senior-level women are leaving at disproportionate rates, citing being passed over and seeing no realistic path forward as key reasons for disengagement.
