What You'll Experience
The stories and advice shared by the speakers and my mentor were incredibly inspiring. They encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone, boosted my self-confidence, and helped me build a strong personal brand. As a result, I became more visible within my last organisation, and my efforts were more widely recognised.
One of the most valuable aspects of this programme was the strong sense of community it fostered. Knowing I wasn’t alone in facing challenges greatly boosted my self-confidence. The tailored advice on crafting a standout CV, enhancing my LinkedIn profile, and effective networking strategies has been particularly impactful in advancing my career opportunities.
