Face-to-Face Workshop

Leadership Briefing | Menopause Strategy at Work Training

Most organisations now recognise that menopause affects their workforce. Fewer have worked out what to actually do about it at a strategic level. The gap between awareness and action is where businesses lose experienced women, weaken their leadership pipelines, and quietly erode the culture they have worked hard to build.

This briefing closes that gap. It gives senior leaders the commercial case, the cultural insight, and the operational framework to move menopause from a wellbeing footnote to a genuine business priority, one that protects talent, strengthens employer brand, and positions the organisation ahead of where the conversation is going.

Session at a Glance

    • Ideal For: Directors, CEOs, Founders, Senior Leaders, Board Members
    • Format: Strategic Leadership Briefing
    • Duration: 60–90 Minutes
    • Best For: Organisations ready to lead on menopause support, not just respond to it
    • Outcome: A clear strategic framework and actionable next steps for business-wide menopause support

For the people who set the direction, not just approve the policy.

This session is designed specifically for those whose decisions shape company culture, talent strategy, and long-term business performance. Directors, CEOs, founders, senior leaders, board members, and heads of people.

These are the individuals whose understanding (or lack of it) determines whether menopause support becomes embedded in how an organisation operates, or stays as a well-meaning initiative that never quite lands. This briefing equips them to lead with confidence, not just sign off on a policy.

  • Directors and board members responsible for culture and governance
  • CEOs and founders shaping business strategy and employer brand
  • Senior leaders managing teams across the organisation
  • Heads of people and HR directors are driving workforce policy
  • Anyone at leadership level who influences retention and engagement decisions
  • Leaders preparing for upcoming regulatory or reporting expectations

What's Included

A focused strategic session built around risk, opportunity, and practical outcomes.

This is not a medical overview or an awareness talk. Every element of this briefing is designed to connect menopause to the business metrics and cultural goals that senior leaders already care about. It reframes the conversation from "something HR handles" to something that directly affects commercial performance.

The session is delivered in a way that respects leaders' time and expertise. It is concise, evidence-informed, and structured around decisions, not theory.

01

Retention and Engagement Risk

Why menopause is a hidden driver of attrition among your most experienced people, and what the data shows.

02

The Midlife Talent Case

Understanding the strategic value of the workforce demographic most affected, and why protecting it matters commercially.

03

Business Case for Support

A clear, evidence-based framework for building the commercial argument internally.

04

Employer Brand and Recruitment

How visible menopause support is becoming a differentiator in attracting senior and mid-career talent.

05

Leadership Behaviours and Culture

The specific leadership signals that determine whether support is real or performative, and how to set the right tone from the top

06

Policy, Accountability, and Communications

What good policy commitment looks like, how to resource it properly, and how to communicate it internally without it feeling tokenistic.

What You Get From It

Immediate clarity on what matters, what to prioritise, and where to start.

Leaders leave this session with a genuine understanding of why menopause is a strategic issue, not just a people one. They gain the language, the evidence, and the confidence to champion support without hesitation or awkwardness.

The longer-term value is organisational. When senior leaders understand the commercial and cultural case clearly, menopause support stops being reactive and becomes part of how the business retains talent, builds loyalty, and strengthens its reputation as an employer of choice.

Strategic Understanding

A clear grasp of how menopause connects to retention, productivity, and workforce planning.

Culture Leadership

Confidence to model the right behaviours and set expectations across the leadership team.

Retention Mindset

A sharper awareness of where attrition risk sits and how to address it before it becomes visible in the data.

Commercial Case for Actio

A ready-made business argument to present to boards, investors, or stakeholders.

Reduced Leadership Blind Spots

Honest insight into what leaders commonly miss, and why it matters.

Actionable Next Steps

A practical framework for business-wide support, not just good intentions.
