It’s a Woman’s Woman’s World
A corporate theatre workshop exploring
gender equity in the workplace
A distinctive and highly engaging workplace training session highlighting common behaviors and attitudes that stand in the way of diversity in the workplace.
It’s a Woman’s Woman’s World holds up a mirror to gender discrimination in the workforce, using a highly relatable and entertaining construct. By flipping the stereotypical gender roles, men and women in the workplace are given an opportunity to observe the hidden discrimination and challenges their colleagues experience on a day to day basis, opening up space for further conversations that can lead to authentic change.
It’s a Woman’s Woman’s World can be delivered independently or as part of a half-day or full-day workshop.
