Driving Change

Leaders Plus Fellows are a diverse community of change-makers with a shared mission - to positively impact the career progression of working parents. In future, no parent should have to choose between the career they love and family and we'll support you to drive this change.

Thought Leadership

Alongside a dedicated Senior Leader Mentor, our Fellows have exclusive access to world-class training as well as the latest research on how to progress your career as a parent. Our Fellowship forces you to think, ensuring that ideas and thoughts are translated into action.

Powerful Peer Support

Described as the 'NCT for professionals', Fellows forge deep connections with a powerful peer support network of parents juggling career progression and family. Our facilitators are skilled at creating safe spaces that challenge thinking but enable Fellows to support each other.
