In 2012 The University of Portsmouth piloted their first Global Development Leadership program for women in Science and Technology faculties. This was seen to be particularly important because of the wider under-representation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) and the need to encourage more women into senior positions in these disciplines within the University. The program drew on global leadership expertise from The University's Business School to assist with delivery. This brief article describes the primary components of the Global Development Leadership Program and general feedback from the program participants.
