Through these 2-day training-of-trainers, selected business advisors will be trained on how to help the admitted businesswomen address the new challenges that emerged because of the economic crisis in Lebanon, COVID-19, and the impact of the Beirut explosion.
Topics discussed will revolve around the considerations of women’s challenges in the business world and the implementation of a crisis management framework to understand the crisis impact on the women’s businesses, develop adequate mitigation plans, better navigate the current crises and ensure sustained operations.
Following the training-of-trainers sessions, the advisors will be matched with the businesswomen, and in parallel, each advisor will receive six one-on-one coaching sessions from Berytech and LLWB to discuss challenges encountered while advising the women-led businesses.
This training is part of the Crisis Management for Women-Led Businesses program, produced as part of the Mashreq Gender Facility MGF, to support the economic mobility of women in Lebanon, helping them to grow sustainable businesses that are market-oriented, profitable, scalable, and which will facilitate job creation or maintain existing jobs.
