Although the programme was initially written and developed for women in non-management grades, women from all levels, including management, have participated in the programme to the benefit of their personal and career development.</p><h3>The Employer:</h3><p>For employers, the Springboard programme enables them to develop staff to their fullest potential, is quick and easy to implement and is often a key component in any Diversity and/or gender initiatives. For even greater impact, run the Springboard and Navigator (the men’s equivalent) programmes in parallel.</p><p></p><h3>Why women only</h3><p>As with other minority groups (such as gender, age, religion, faith race, disability and sexuality), women have many issues in common. They get a huge boost by discovering they are ‘not the only one’.</p><p>The programme deals with sensitive issues, being women-only, this makes it easier to talk about issues in a safe environment.</p><p>Mainstream programmes do not address specific issues for women – this does.</p><p>Springboard gives your organisation an EO/Diversity boost to be doing something for women, in tune with gender equality legislation.</p><h3>Results After the Programme</h3><p>The results relate to the individual aims and objectives that each woman sets herself on the first workshop. Many women use the programme for career development, to get results at work, such as new qualifications, promotions, new skills, a new attitude to change and a massive boost in confidence.</p><p>Other women focus on results in their personal life, such as sorting out difficult relationships, improving health, dealing with stress and gaining a work/life balance.</p><p>Some women improve their career development after attending the Springboard Women’s Development Programme, whilst others stay in the same job but with a new sense of purpose and a more positive attitude.</p><p>The managers of participants on the Springboard Development Programme are delighted with the changes in their staff. They say participants become more focused, with better communication skills, clearer career goals, and a positive attitude to confidently solve problems on their own.</p><p>We have an abundance of evaluation evidence, gathered from a wealth of organisations over many years.
