Retaining women leaders through change

The transitions that shape women's lives are also the moments when organisations lose their most experienced people. They don't have to be.

For organisations

Policy and culture support, creating the conditions for women leaders to thrive through change.

For individuals

Strategic one-to-one coaching for women leaders experiencing change.

1 in 10

women leave work due to menopause symptoms.

£1.5bn

is the annual cost to the British economy of women leaving work due to menopause alone.

63%

of new mothers report a poor return-to-work experience. More than a quarter do not return at all.

For organisations

Transition is where talent is lost.

Women leaders leaving at the peak of their experience isn’t inevitable. It’s a policy and culture problem, with a practical solution. Entela works with organisations to build the conditions that make staying possible.

For individuals

You already contain everything you need.

Transition can make the most capable women feel uncertain, unhappy, and unrecognisable to themselves. Entela coaching creates the space to find your ground again, and lead from there.

"The complete self is already present within you - not something to be built, but something to be uncovered."
