The White Rose Equity in Leadership programme offers targeted leadership development for staff from global majority backgrounds. You will engage in three in-person workshops, each hosted at a different White Rose partner institution (Leeds, Sheffield and York), which will give you tools and insights to enhance your leadership journey.     

Day 1 will take place in Leeds and covers:  

• Your values and Culture 

• Power and influence in Leadership 

• The value of networking 

• Mentoring, coaching and sponsoring impacts 

To be eligible for this programme, you must attend all three days in person in full. For more information, please visit the White Rose Equity in Leadership page or click on the events to learn more about day 2 and 3. 

The programme aims to foster a diverse group of staff members from Leeds, Sheffield, and York. By adopting an equity-based approach, it seeks to accelerate career progression for global majority talent, ultimately diversifying leadership within higher education. Participants will have the opportunity to share their experiences and learn from the journeys of others.
