Become Stories.
- Nov 8, 2021
Become + Thrive is a social enterprise dedicated to supporting black women to thrive in professional spaces.
Our goal is to increase the number of black women in leadership positions across industry and help them to main those positions and be paid accordingly for their time.
Fawcett’s 2020 Sex and Power Index shows just 6% of chief executives of FTSE 100 companies are women.
None are women of colour.
We equip young black with the skills and support they need to start their career, through events, internships, information distribution and industry networking.
We also connect with organisations who wish to create safe spaces for black women to thrive in and collaborate on opportunities and events with them.
This workshop moves past generic discussion on diversity and inclusion. We discuss how unconscious biases and the nuances of colourism can we affecting black women in your workplace and or your recruiting practices.
This is for companies who want to engage with how stereotypes impact black women in the workplace daily and move past them to allow black women to truly be able to show up to work as themselves.
A workshop for the black women in your organisation in which we create a safe space and discuss what they need to thrive. A report is created from the discussion with potential action points for your organisation.
