PWN Global Newsletter Q3 2021
Dear PWN
friends,
We are very honoured and happy to take the reins
as the newly elected Co-Presidents of PWN Global, and we thank you for
your trust.
We have great ambitions for PWN Global and for
all of our city networks around the world: to advance women in
leadership; to influence companies to transform themselves; and,
make gender balance a priority in the workplace, and society as a
whole. To achieve these ambitions, we need to continue raising the
awareness of PWN Global, and the work of its incredible volunteer
community.
We promise to support our community by
demonstrating the utmost professionalism and drive, to continually
improve our membership experience, and engage our wider business
community to make tangible, sustainable change, to advance
gender-balanced leadership.
Over the Summer period, we will be working to
build our Board and detail our strategic goals, that we will share
with you all in September. In the meantime, you can take
a look at the updates on our Board page of the website, to get
acquainted with our core team.
Before that, be inspired by the great efforts of
our different city networks, such as a return to face-to-face events
in Copenhagen,
and Romania.
That feels good, doesn't it?
For those new to PWN, and even those who have
been with us for a while, in this newsletter we offer you a potted history
of PWN Global: how we were founded; our history highlights and
where we are going next. You will see that our network was founded on
a real need, established by women who were willing to stand up for
their deeply held convictions.
In the next newsletter, we look forward to
sharing with you our vision for the future, which will undoubtedly
have the same impetus and the same enthusiasm, following in the
footsteps of the women whose shoulders we stand on.
If you are not already a member or have let your
membership lapse, please do
take time to join us - keeping connected to a support
community is more important than ever.
Enjoy this edition and please remember to forward
it to your friends and colleagues who you think will enjoy it too,
keep the inspiration and hope flowing.
It just remains for us to say a big 'Thank you!
Merci! Mulțumesc!' to our outgoing Board. Thank you to out-going
Co-Presidents, Carina
Furlong, and Sheila
Gemin and their entire team for their dedicated support during one
of the most difficult periods in PWN history.
We wish everyone in our wonderful community a
great Summer break and ask you to stay safe, stay well and stay
connected.
Virginia and Nadine
