Career Accelerator
Fri, Nov 6, 12:00 PMYour degree got you this far. Now it’s time to turn your potential into professional momentum. Breaking into the job market can be difficult. You may have the qualifications, but still find yourself wondering: \- Why isn’t my CV getting results? \- How do I stand out without years of experience? \- How do I build confidence when networking? \- What are employers actually looking for? \- And how do I prove what I can do before someone gives me the opportunity? CAP Summit is designed to help you start answering those questions. Join us for an interactive, career-focused event built for graduates, early-career professionals, and ambitious job seekers who want practical guidance, stronger professional confidence, and a clearer route into the career they want. ## What to expect This isn’t an event where you sit and listen. You’ll take part in practical activities designed around situations you’re likely to face in the real world — from introducing yourself confidently and joining conversations to understanding how to position yourself more effectively in today’s job market. You’ll explore: • Networking & Confidence — Learn how to approach people, join conversations naturally and make a stronger first impression. • Career Positioning — Understand how your CV, LinkedIn presence and professional identity influence how employers see you. • The Experience Problem — Discover ways to move beyond “I need experience to get experience” and start building evidence of what you can actually do. • What Employers Look For — Explore the professional behaviours and competencies that help people get hired and succeed once they enter the workplace. • Practical Career Direction — Leave with a clearer understanding of the areas you need to strengthen and the next steps you can take. ## Discover the Career Accelerator Programme You’ll also be introduced to CAP — the Career Accelerator Programme, a structured 12-week programme designed for people who are serious about building a career, not simply finding their next job. CAP combines professional development with experience inside a live business. Participants work on real projects, receive weekly one-to-one feedback and develop across seven professional competencies. The goal is simple: give you the skills, experience and evidence to compete for the career you actually want. ## Who should attend? CAP Summit is particularly relevant if you’re a: 🎓 Graduate trying to break into the professional job market 💼 Job seeker struggling to stand out 🚀 Early-career professional looking to accelerate your development 📈 Ambitious individual who wants practical experience rather than another certificate If you’ve worked hard to get where you are but still feel stuck, overlooked or unsure what your next move should be, this event is for you. ## Come ready to participate. Meet people. Practice. Ask questions. Challenge yourself. And leave with a clearer idea of what it takes to move from qualified on paper to credible in the workplace. Places are limited; reserve your place at CAP Summit today.

Navigating Corporate Trauma
Wed, Nov 18, 5:30 PMNavigating Corporate Trauma From Surviving to Thriving: Reclaim Your Confidence, Your Voice & Your Power Have you ever walked away from a workplace feeling less confident, less valued, or questioning your own abilities? Perhaps you’ve experienced a toxic boss, workplace bullying, discrimination, gaslighting, betrayal, burnout, or a corporate culture that slowly chipped away at your confidence. Maybe you left that environment behind, but the impact followed you into your next role, your relationships, or even the way you see yourself. You’re not alone. And your workplace experiences do not have to define your future. Join Women on the RISE for an empowering, thought-provoking, and practical evening dedicated to understanding, navigating, and recovering from corporate trauma. This isn’t another traditional networking event or leadership seminar. It’s an opportunity to have the conversations that too often go unspoken in the corporate world. What You’ll Discover During this interactive three-hour workshop, we’ll explore: * Recognising Corporate Trauma: Understand how toxic workplace experiences, bullying, discrimination, exclusion, and chronic stress can affect your confidence, identity, and career. * Breaking Free from Self-Doubt: Explore how workplace experiences can contribute to imposter feelings, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of speaking up. * Rebuilding Your Confidence: Discover practical techniques to reconnect with your strengths, trust your judgment, and reclaim your professional voice. * Setting Healthy Boundaries: Learn strategies for recognising red flags, protecting your wellbeing, and navigating challenging workplace dynamics. * Moving from Surviving to Thriving: Develop a personal action plan to move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose. What Makes This Workshop Different? We believe that professional success should never come at the expense of your wellbeing. This workshop creates space for real conversations, meaningful connections, practical strategies, and personal reflection. You’ll have opportunities to connect with other ambitious women who understand the pressures of professional life, share experiences if you choose, and learn strategies you can apply immediately. You won’t be expected to disclose personal experiences. Participation is always your choice, and the session is designed to be supportive and respectful. Who Should Attend? This event is for women at every stage of their professional journey, particularly those who: * Have experienced toxic or challenging workplace environments. * Are recovering from burnout or a difficult professional experience. * Feel their confidence has been affected by workplace experiences. * Are navigating a career transition or returning to work. * Want to become more resilient, self-assured leaders. * Lead teams and want to create psychologically safer workplaces. Whether you’re an emerging leader, senior executive, entrepreneur, or woman navigating your next chapter, this evening is for you. Event Details Date: Wednesday, 18 November 2026 Time: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM Location: Central London (exact venue to be announced) Hosted by: Women on the RISE Theme: Heal • Reset • Lead • Thrive Come for the Conversation. Leave with a New Perspective. Imagine walking into a room filled with ambitious, accomplished women who understand that behind every successful career is a story that isn’t always visible. Imagine leaving with renewed confidence, practical tools, meaningful connections, and a clearer vision of the leader you want to become. Your past workplace experiences may have shaped your journey, but they don’t have to determine your destination. At Women on the RISE, we believe in lifting one another, rising together, and soaring beyond the limitations placed upon us. Reserve your place and join us for an evening of reflection, connection, empowerment, and growth. Women on the RISE — Lift. Rise. Soar. Real Conversations. Practical Strategies. Lasting Change. I would position this on Meetup and LinkedIn as a premium, interactive leadership and wellbeing workshop, rather than a trauma support group. That helps attract corporate professionals, managers, senior leaders and women in career transition while keeping the subject approachable. One important distinction: unless a qualified trauma professional is facilitating, the event should be presented as an educational, supportive workshop rather than therapy or a promise of trauma healing.
