W.I.N. 2005 Global Leadership Forum
Leading for the future
Geneva, Switzerland 6-8th (9) October 2005
Dear Friends,
Are you a leader? Is leadership a mystery to you?
If you have never thought of yourself as a leader you are not alone. We tend to use labels such as manager, entrepreneur, translator, wife, and mother to define ourselves. But think again – everyday you routinely make decisions that seek to influence the behavior of others and the outcome of situations, and at times you simply draw people to your desk by the sheer force of your magnetic conviction.
If we redefine those decisions and happenings as conscious actions of leadership we unleash a new meaning to the power we possess, to set the agendas we choose and to achieve the objectives we envision. Successful leaders know this instinctively and they combine it with a host of skills, tools, energy and strategies, which is what we need to learn and put to work in our respective lives.
Women have a vital role to play in this century and each and every one of us embodies the power to influence, to decide, to lead and to be a change agent. What about taking our own roles seriously, assuming leadership to make a difference, leading with grace by being true to ourselves, restructuring organizations with caring environments, making conscious decision for lasting results, handling communication with empathy and in every way assuring that lives and careers blossom world-wide?
Your Invitation to:
- Explore and inspire
W.I.N. 2005, “Leading for the future” is the 8th in a series of visionary global leadership forums that continues to inspire thousands of women, enhance their careers, improve business and change the life of many a women and many a business.
