The partnership is set to provide WLC with financial and strategic guidance along with sponsorship towards their learning programs, closed door events, and other activities.
Women Leadership Circle (WLC) and 360 ONE are pleased to announce a significant collaboration aimed at empowering women in corporate India and redefining the narrative of women in leadership and entrepreneurial roles.
360 ONE is a leading wealth and alternatives-focused asset management group based in India, with over US$ 63 billion assets under management, serving 7,400+ HNI and ultra-HNI families, in building and preserving their wealth and legacy. Renowned for cultivating a workplace where women lead and are valued, 360 ONE, will provide WLC an ecosystem of women trailblazers sharing, inspiring, and empowering each other and future generations of women leaders—with opportunities such as sponsorships, financial backing, and strategic guidance to foster a dynamic ecosystem for professional women. .
Women leaders face unique challenges due to systemic barriers and societal stereotypes, necessitating a dedicated support for women in senior leadership and boardroom positions. The underrepresentation of women in the workforce, coupled with issues of parity and equal opportunities, underscores the need for platforms that encourage, nurture, and mentor women. Women Leadership Circle (WLC) addresses this need by providing women leaders and entrepreneurs with resources, networks, and mentorship, enabling significant career growth and a global footprint.
Key Highlights of the Partnership:
- Sponsorship and Financial Backing: 360 ONE will provide sponsorship and financial backing for WLC’s learning programs, closed door events, and other women-led activities.
- Women on Boards Program: The collaboration will enable the success of initiatives such as Women on Boards, creating opportunities to increase women’s representation in boardrooms while providing access to learning, growth avenues, and placement opportunities.
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I): Aligning with WLC’s vision, 360 ONE is committed to driving change for women in the Indian workforce. Through this collaboration, WLC will leverage sponsorship to create an environment where women in leadership roles can flourish, contributing significantly to the collective advancement of women in professional and entrepreneurial roles.
- Encouraging Coaching and Mentorship: By partnering with 360 ONE, WLC will receive sponsorship for research papers, coaching and mentorship programs, and closed-door events such as TRIBE, which create safe spaces for professional and personal growth among other WLC properties.
