Description
The Female Advantage? Valuing difference and playing to strengths
Women in Sustainability London Network Hub are delighted to be hosted by Mott Macdonald for an after work event on 24th May 2018.
We’ll be exploring the theme of ‘The Female Advantage? Exploring how women lead, communicate & approach work differently’.
-
Do we recognise any differences between male and female ‘ways of working’?
-
If so, what are those differences and how can we make the most of them?
-
In organisations where high performance and a flourishing workforce combine, what are they doing differently and how can we apply that learning to our work creating positive change for a sustainable world?
