We are Lacking Behind on Gender Equality
In World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report 2020, Denmark receives an overall 14th place far behind our Nordic neighbors, and the numbers become even more discouraging when we look further into the report. When it comes to the number of women in top positions like legislators, senior officials, and managers, Denmark’s has a 102. place, and when it comes to equal pay for equal work, Denmark has a 52. place in the world.
We Inform, Educate and Connect the Leaders of Tomorrow
At Female Leadership Academy we aspire to get more women in top leadership positions, and we believe that efforts must be made already during the student time. Through our leadership academy, open events, a network of members, and a podcast, we empower female leadership and help future female leaders maximize their potential.

Testimonials
"FLA was an opportunity to get role models on a close hold, to become part of a network, and to develop personally as well as professionally. I was very fond of the program and will recommend you apply if you have even the slightest notion to do so. I guarantee you won't regret it."
"Being a part of the Female Leadership Academy has been invaluable to me both professionally and personally. I looked forward to every session and although I didn't want the Academy to end, I walked away with the most incredible and supportive network, as well as added confidence and skills that will help me reach my leadership ambitions."
"FLA was an invaluable experience both, content and context-wise.In terms of content, we were exposed to excellent leaders from different companies who helped us reflect and gain useful tips & tricks on presentation skills, resilience at work, courageous leadership, negotiation, conflict management, talent and values.
In terms of context, being surrounded by a group of 30 other ambitious and inspiring women from different backgrounds, fields and disciplines created an energy in the room that tended to vibrate strongly throughout the duration of each workshop. From my time with FLA, my three main learnings are to be authentic and true to who I am, to increase my opportunity to influence by knowing the type of person "on the other side," and to be very aware of my thoughts so that I can make sure they are not anchored to the past, nor fearing a possible future scenario that is uncontrollable.
I would totally recommend it!"
"The best part of the academy was the wide range of content and speakers, and we both covered how we can speak up in rooms with confidence, how we can empower each other and handle conflicts and much more."
"Inspirational, educational and empowering! Thank you!"
"Everything was well organised. The speakers have been a perfect match for the sessions and the time reserved to them was also perfectly planned."
“Very nice atmosphere, positive environment. I highly appreciate the effort the organization team and speakers put into planning the academy. One can really feel the teams' passion"
“I really appreciated the time we had to reflect on our dreams and developing new skills”
"We learned a lot of concrete tools and exercises in how to develop yourself and fulfill your own potential. We also had some inspiring workshops with females who had different kind of leadershipstyle. So if you want to expand your network and meet other inspiring people then you should definitely join the next Female Leadership Academy!"
"I encourage you to join FLA to gain insight on yourself, get a network of great women around you and to give you an extra an extra push towards your future career along with a whole lot of honesty, inspiration and motivation."
