Course description
Development Plus Senior leadership for women
Development Plus is an innovative and specialised course, for both personal and work development, tailored for female leaders so they can overcome the invisible barriers that can prevent them from rising to senior positions in their organisations.
Written specifically for women by women, it was originally commissioned by the UK Home Office. It provides women with the skills, knowledge, support, ideas and determination to continue up the ladder.
The course recognises the realities of senior women’s lives and is tailored to the culture and needs of the client organisation and its senior women.
The Development Plus course will allow your organisation to:
- Capitalise on your own in-house talent, thus reducing senior recruitment costs
- Build a sustainable and diverse talent pipeline whilst taking positive action to counterbalance the lack of women at very senior levels.
- Support a global community of women committed to their development and advancement.

A thought provoking and challenging experience, which made me realise once you reach the Senior Civil Service you need to prepare to step up to the mark and lead the way.
