An in-house development program to support sustainable, values-driven leadership for women in corporate and professional services.
Support your female leaders to grow with clarity, confidence and purpose
In fast-paced, high-pressure environments, talented women are often left carrying a quiet load. The weight of expectations. The complexity of workplace dynamics. The inner drive to achieve without burning out.
Thriving Professional Women is a practical, structured and reflective in-house program designed for women navigating the challenges of modern professional life.
Grounded in the principle that "you can’t lead others sustainably if you can’t lead yourself," this program supports participants to build the self-leadership foundations essential for influencing others with integrity and purpose.
Delivered across ten, eight or six sessions (tailored to your needs where required), the program helps women clarify their direction and develop the mindset and habits to lead themselves and others more sustainably.
It’s a meaningful investment in your people – helping them lead with more steadiness, influence and confidence.

I cannot recommend Michelle’s Thriving Professional Women 10 month mentoring program highly enough. It has been a privilege to share, reflect, learn and grow with other like minded women under Michelle’s wise guidance.
Michelle is so generous with her time and knowledge, and the support and open sharing of the group reinforced the learnings of each session. I look forward to applying what I have learnt into my leadership role as I strive to operate ‘above the line’.
