We are pleased to announce our next series of Step Forward Events and we invite you to join us at the 'Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway' workshop.
Workshop Overview
Studies show women experience lower levels of confidence than men in professional settings and that this contributes to the gender gap. Individuals with high levels of confidence have both (a) high self-efficacy and (b) low fear of failure. Self-efficacy is one’s belief in their ability to succeed and involves a positive assessment of one’s capabilities.
Low fear of failure is linked to a propensity for stepping outside one’s comfort zone. Techniques for developing self-confidence address either self-efficacy, fear of failure, or both.
In this workshop for empowering female talent, participants learn six proven techniques for enhancing their self-confidence; challenging self-limiting beliefs, developing a growth mindset, owning your achievements and containing your failures, identifying role models, positive visualisation and practice.
