Adopting new behaviours can’t simply be done with an ambitious snap of the fingers! At The A Effect, we design programs that create the conditions to make change stick. We rely on two powerful levers: meticulous methodology based on concrete data, and the experience of those in the field who continuously share the latest developments of the professional world with us.
Setting an ambitious, realistic, and measurable goal from the start is what pushes participants to step out of their comfort zone. Throughout the program, this challenge acts as a driver for change, anchoring the learnings in daily life.
Our microlearning approach is based on diversity of sources, regularity, and varied formats that encourage learning retention. For 100 days, the participants are exposed to a series of materials (videos, articles), encouraged to reflect on key issues, and prompted to take action.
Changing behaviour starts with a deep understanding of oneself. That’s why each learning experience invites personal reflection, followed by tangible application in the workplace. By alternating between these two ways forward, theory and practice, participants expand their comfort zone and develop long-lasting habits.
By sharing their professional experiences candidly, the women and men invited to speak during events offer participants stories they can identify with and the keys to asserting their own leadership style. Doubts, epiphanies, setbacks: our leaders tell it like it is. This diverse range of voices fuels ambition and breaks down many barriers.
The triads, squads, and small groups in the workshops make it possible to discuss, try out ideas, and see things differently. Simply put: to benefit from the group’s collective intelligence. These relationships lead to powerful conversations, concrete ideas to try out, and a lasting sense of collective momentum.

Data analysis keeps us connected to the realities faced by our graduates and learners. In partnership with Makila AI, we have developed a unique approach to data management that helps our clients to better grasp the outcomes of our programs and the career trajectories of their graduates.
Since 2015, The A Effect has developed fine-tuned knowledge of the professional environment in which women operate. By documenting the challenges they face in the workplace, their aspirations, and the levers influencing their advancement, we create the most comprehensive and tailor-made programs for them.
Through surveys in our newsletter, regular conversations with our participants or leaders, and of course with our graduates through Club A, we’re always increasing opportunities to listen. Every year, we welcome hundreds of graduates to our offices in Montréal and Paris, so we can stay connected to the realities they face.
This two-pronged approach combining science and real-world experience allows us to design training programs that are perfectly aligned with women’s needs in a professional setting – as well as with those of their organization.
