The bottom-up initiative ‘Focus on Women’ was started by six female managers. Combined with our Coaching Circles – coaching, training, mentoring, and networking for female leadership – it seeks to increase awareness about the huge pool of female talent and to inspire female colleagues. Gender diversity is a win-win for Umicore.
Founded in 2016, The Focus on Women platform aims to boost awareness on matters related to female leadership and the gender gap in business. The platform’s activities include forming a network of women in managerial positions, organising events with keynote speakers on topics related to diversity, and introducing the Coaching Circles training program in Umicore.
The Coaching Circles consist of 5 group sessions, on 5 topics introduced by a professional trainer: ‘Network & Connection’, ‘Communication & Visibility’, ‘Life Balance & Resilience’, ‘Effective Leadership’ and ‘Personal Growth’. Individual coaching at start and end complements the program with a personal growth factor.
The sessions are very interactive, with 20 participants and 5 mentors. There are breakout moments where we discuss how to apply the topic of the session in the specific Umicore setting; creating a link between theory and practice.
As a mentor, we want to create an open atmosphere, being authentic and thus lowering the hurdle for sharing. This also means showing our vulnerability, as some topics are not easy to share, i.e. how to overcome self-limiting beliefs. We are convinced that our personal learnings and insights in the ‘do & don’ts’ can be of great value to younger female colleagues.
