Leadership and Diversity Programs

Accelerate Women’s Leadership for Gender Inclusive Financial Services

Our leadership and diversity work supports today’s financial inclusion leaders and the next generation of diverse talent. We offer programs and strategic diversity consulting to enhance individual and team effectiveness, create inclusive workplaces, and promote more inclusive policy environments.

Take the future further with diverse and skilled leaders

Our leadership programs help institutions create inclusive workplaces to attract and retain diverse talent and to develop innovative financial products and services that meet the needs of low-income women.

We use a variety of learning approaches – in-house training, executive coaching, peer exchanges and diversity consulting – to support participants and their institutions to lead through complexity and change.

We have engaged 230 graduates from 58 policy and regulatory agencies in 42 countries through our leadership and diversity training programs.
