Group workshops
For organisations & women's networks
Help your female talent communicate with impact, assert themselves, and advance their careers.
Women are leaving STEM not because they are not talented. They're working in environments that weren't designed for them.
While organisational change takes time, your female talent needs solutions now.
Our approach? Science-based insights into the challenges women face. Through practical workshops, we build essential skills in confidence, resilience, and influence.
Designed by a Chartered engineer who overcame these challenges herself.
No theory. No fluff. Just practical skills that create lasting change for your team.
We’ve worked with over 200 women to build their workplace confidence and communication skills.
Here's what organisations are saying:
Women's Engineering Society
Christina’s webinar on ‘Mastering Confidence & Assertiveness’ was a real hit with our members at the Women’s Engineering Society. She has an engaging way of breaking down the science behind confidence and turning it into practical, easy-to-use tools. Her personal story really connected with the audience, and the simple 4-step framework she shared gave everyone something they could put into practice straight away. We’d happily recommend Christina to any group looking to support and uplift women in STEM.
- Candi Colborn, Events and Marketing Manager at WES
STEMAZING
The STEMAZING Community thoroughly enjoyed the fantastic interactive webinar hosted by Christina and it had such an amazing impact.
Christina broke everything down into simple, actionable steps and conveyed her messages using personal, relatable anecdotes. There were many powerful insights, plenty of interesting points shared by the participants, and a plethora of valuable practical takeaways. Key takeaways centred around personal narratives, valued experiences, power and authority, language we use, steps to assertiveness and how to reframe our limiting beliefs. An empowering webinar for sure and highly recommended!

What participants say about their experience
They notice an immediate effect:
Alexis Peterson, Customer Success Leader
I recently attended Christina’s Mastering Your Confidence session and found it incredibly helpful. In under an hour, she shared simple, practical tools to speak up more confidently, reframe self-doubt, and use language that gets your point across clearly.
One tip I’ve used right away is swapping out softer phrases like “just” or “maybe” for more direct ones like “I want to check” or “to follow up.” It’s already helped me speak with more impact and coach my team to do the same.
If your team could use a confidence boost and better communication tools, I highly recommend bringing Christina in, you’ll see a difference after one session.
Rachel Murray, Design Leader
I attended Christina’s seminar on Mastering Confidence & Assertiveness: A Science-Backed Approach, and found her expertise so incredibly useful. Her delivery is engaging and powerful and I was inspired to think more about confidence and the stories we say about it to become more aware of our own authority and leadership. She focused on helping us understand how to take our beliefs and rewrite the negatives to be strengths, and her concept of how we can take steps to be assertive is something extremely applicable to all our relationships. It’s helped me reflect about how to build persuasive bridges to others, and the impact of rethinking how to build our confidence is foundational for women in particular to be successful. I enthusiastically would recommend working with Christina to foster your own unique confidence style and become the empathetic, assertive visionary leader you want to be.
Beth Steed, Product Manager
Christina Brugger's workshop on workplace assertiveness was incredibly insightful and empowering.
The four-step assertive communication framework was particularly helpful and easy to understand. I left feeling more confident and equipped to navigate workplace challenges with greater assertiveness and self-assurance. I found Christina's personal insights particularly valuable as I am working towards moving into the tech industry myself.
Key takeaways that resonated with me were the importance of strategic eye contact at key moments in conversations and the power of "taking up space" in meetings.
I would highly recommend this workshop to any woman seeking to elevate her career and build a more confident and impactful professional presence.
Ashley Austin, Community Operations Lead
Christina’s course on confidence and assertiveness was a game-changer. Her insights and practical tools were not only empowering but immediately applicable to how I navigate conversations, decisions, and challenges at work. I find myself showing up with more clarity and intention every day. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to strengthen their voice and presence in the workplace.
I have been there myself...
After 10+ years across manufacturing, tech startups, and SMBs, I went from struggling to speak up in meetings to confidently leading as a VP and setting up my own consultancy - through Harvard training and executive coaching.
Now I help other women in STEM accelerate their leadership journey by sharing the proven tools and strategies I've learned along the way.
We might not be able to instantly change our environment, but we can change how we deal with it!
