About Us

WIN

WIN is a mission-driven impact organization based in Lausanne, Switzerland, founded in 1997 in Milan by Norwegian social entrepreneur and pioneer Kristin Engvig.

​

With a bold vision for a more inclusive and flourishing future, she brought together professional women and international women’s associations from around the world to explore new ways of leading and living. Long before it became mainstream, WIN infused business and society with holistic perspectives, beauty, wellness, and nurturing values. Since then, it has directly engaged thousands of women and partnered with hundreds of companies worldwide.

 

What began as a gathering has grown into a global movement, inspiring women to shape a workplace, world, and life aligned with a more authentic, feminine, and global paradigm shifting the course of the entire women’s leadership movement. WIN’s signature events, especially the immersive WIN Conference, offer transformative experiences of connection, possibility, and purpose. Participants leave inspired to lead with authenticity, courage, and care, becoming catalysts for change in their lives and organizations.

​

Over the years, WIN has become a global reference point in pioneering leadership and Kristin the iconic reference for a 'feminine authentic and global' leadership and illuminated way forward. 

 

Its collaborative, human-centred approach continues to influence leaders, managers, entrepreneurs, and changemakers committed to building cultures where inclusion, innovation, and human potential thrive.

​

Originally envisioned as the Women’s International Network, WIN united global women’s networks into a vibrant, purposeful community. It has also been referred to as Women's International Networking, Women' s Inspiring Network and Working Internationally Now. The WIN vision, way, framework of change and methodology and key concepts are held under WIN's centre of excellence.

 

Today, it still stands as a beacon of conscious leadership rooted in connection, guided by wholeness, and committed to shared progress.

​

WIN continues to evolve from an association to a social enterprise, and now fundraising to become a foundation to expand its reach and impact for generations to come.
