Change starts here
Improving gender balance is not simply a moral imperative. The business case is clear: advancing more women improves profitability and performance.
Countless studies show when companies have better gender balance it cascades into positive outcomes: greater innovation, enhanced company reputation, improved recruitment and retention of talent, increased staff engagement and higher profit margins.
Yet, the further we look up the corporate ladder the fewer women we see, despite decades of concerted efforts to address this imbalance.

At Stephanie Aitken Consulting, our proprietary methodology helps companies to improve gender balance and thereby enhance profit and performance. It starts with listening to what your women actually want rather than building policies and processes based on assumptions. Then providing them with tailored support at each stage of their career whilst cultivating a corporate framework and culture that enables women to thrive.
We work with companies exactly like yours to create better gender balance in a way that creates unity not division so that you can retain more women without alienating others. We harness our extensive expertise in women’s professional development and apply our unique process to create outstanding bespoke solutions that will unleash the power of gender parity in your organisation.

We start by helping you to uncover exactly what it is that your women want and need: no assumptions, no misconceptions – just a clear understanding based on quantitative and qualitative insight. We then apply this knowledge to help you achieve paradigm shifting results by removing the barriers to progress; creating tailored programmes of support that reflect the needs of your women, your workforce and your organisation; and then helping you to embed systemic change to ensure that your results are sustainable.
Whether you’re a senior executive wanting to improve gender diversity in your organisation, a development professional looking to enhance the career prospects of your people or a DEI champion seeking motivating inspiration for your initiatives: we can help.
