For women who want to grow. For organizations that want to strengthen.

Untapped potential, stalled career opportunities, and insufficient attention to health and balance: this costs women daily job satisfaction, development, and employability. Yet this is where the opportunities for growth, innovation, and sustainable strength lie. As long as female qualities, ambitions, and needs are overlooked, we only utilize half of what is possible. This is a missed chance for women, but also for organizations. That’s why there is the Women & Work Desk (Vrouw & Werk Desk): a powerful and accessible starting point for anyone who wants to move forward. With advice, inspiration, and support, we are building organizations where women thrive and the future becomes stronger, more inclusive, and more resilient.
