Ready to boost your leadership pipeline with more female talent?

September 2026 - March 2027
Just 1 Cohort of 10 women per year

Exclusive 6 month ‘International Manufacturing Career Accelerator’ - 4 day leadership programme in Cambridge 🇬🇧 around the “International Manufacturing Symposium” included!

Sound familiar?

  • Women don't come back after maternity leave.

  • We would welcome more female leaders but not enough strong candidates apply.

  • Young mothers cannot be expected to take on leadership roles in a part time position.

  • We have some great women but they are not leadership material.

  • Women are always so paranoid that they are not taken seriously.

  • Women are over-sensitive.

Dealing with beliefs, assumptions and myths like this is a part of the ‘Senior Leadership and Board Member Consultancy & Training’ included because training in isolation is not enough.

International Manufacturing Career Accelerator

We turn overlooked female technical talent into visible, promotable leaders who strengthen manufacturing performance, succession and innovation.

The Kickoff for this 6 month programme will be in Cambridge (UK) immediately before the 30th International Manufacturing Symposium which we of course will attend.

This conference/leadership combo presents a unique opportunity for your top female talent to get up to date with the industry developments and connect with other manufacturing experts.

Our workshops before and after the event give this corporate cohort of women in manufacturing the opportunity to talk openly and honestly about
- their career,
- the implications of industry trends on their production lines and
- how industry developments are changing the industry as a whole.

Manufacturers can expect ...

  • healthier leadership pipelines

  • stronger succession

  • far better retention

  • more visible female talent

  • and a more competitive culture.

It's about more than 'just' confidence for the women; it is better leadership capability, stronger employer reputation, and lower risk of stagnation as older leaders retire.

Why Focus on Women in Manufacturing?

  • "Women disappear at P&L ownership stage" Deloitte

  • Pipeline attrition hits 70%+ for technical-to-leadership transitions

  • Manufacturing 2.1M jobs unfilled by 2030 - female pipeline is critical

I'm Corinne,

I'm a positive but practical L&D professional with 30 years of experience as a consultant, coach and trainer in male dominated industries (Reuters, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, Arthur Andersen, HypoVereinsbank, Merita Bank, Heidenhain, Siemens Energy, Siemens, Deutsche Bundestag, Astra Zeneca, Wüstenrot…).

Having grown up in a (bilingual) manufacturing family business I grew up with optimisation discussions for dessert. So as a persistent problem solver I am also a certified Enterprise Agility Consultant working with clients in tech and engineering.

You'll hear me talking about communication, connection and culture. Every conversation counts, I help people to be more intentional about what they say and how they say it for the sake of their credibility and career opportunities.

I'm happy working in both English & German.

Testimonial

Corinne is an exceptional communication coach, both challenging and supportive in exactly the right measure. Her insights, tips and detailed feedback helped me refine how I speak, present and connect with my audience. Every session left me with something concrete to apply and a renewed sense of confidence. I'm deeply grateful for her patience and encouragement. I'd highly recommend Corinne to anyone looking to strengthen their communication impact.

6 Months Commitment to Female Leaders

The economy is tough, I get it.
The truth is though, that the demographics aren't changing, the pressure is on. So market leading manufacturers are preparing more women in support roles for leadership.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What if I cannot find 10 women?

    Really? With just one spot, once you have signed up you pay the full price whether you have 10 women or not, we can provide you with a free consultation as to how to fill these seats, we find pearls of talent in every organisation, just reach out for a free diversity consultation series once you have exhausted your options. (No later than 1. June 2026) We interview all of your proposed candidates and we can advise you.

  • How will I know if the participants have good enough English?

    Don't worry, I will speak to every participant and if they just need a refresher I have a VoiceVantage Programme that your participants can have access to for ONE MONTH for free. (They're normally better in English than they realise, they just need practice - We can start in German if you prefer)

  • Will the participants need a visa to get into the UK?

    Yes, (crazy Brits) but it is a very simple, affordable process which your travel department will be able to help you with.

  • Why is it only for women?

    In my experience women open up more and gain more value from the leadership training when they are in a safe space of women only. Securing psychological safety at the beginning of a leadership training programme is faster and more effective when the women don't feel judged by male colleagues and bosses. We welcome male advocates or allies during the consultancy and leadership training phase for senior leaders and board members.

  • What is the application procedure?

    • We jump on a call with the decision makers to discuss your organisation's concerns, needs, problems and goals in terms of female empowerment. This is a bespoke solution for your company. We'll be measuring from Day 1 so be ready to provide us with data.

    • Up to 20 women can apply, we will suggest the 10 most suitable candidates based on coach-ability, English language level and commitment or career fit. Personal Live Teams Calls make this flexible, personal and informative.

  • What is the payment process?

    You will receive tax deductible invoices.
