PWN Global Newsletter Q3 2022
Summer Edition
Dear members
and supporters,
Over the next month, many of us will be taking
some time off to recharge our batteries, enjoy friends and family, and
refocus on those things that are most important to us.
After anothering challenging start to the year,
I'm sure you join us in the need for a well-deserved rest.
In the past two years, PWN Global and its city
networks have, like many NGOs and businesses, been impacted negatively
by the global Pandemic. However, we are finally starting to see the
light at the end of the tunnel, and this year has shown the positive
signs of new growth for our global community. For the first time in 5
years, we saw our membership figures fall below 3000, and we're now
happy to announce that we are almost back to pre-Pandemic membership
levels with well over 3000 members.
When we return in September, after the Summer
break, we will be launching several new initiatives, including our
International Mentoring Program which will be launched at the end of
the year. This program is for those of you who do not live close to an
existing city network, or for those of you who need and
internationally experienced mentor to support your career goals. It's
a well known fact that mentoring is one of the most impactful ways of
achieving your career aspirations and we want this program to be
available to all our members, regardless of their geographical
location.
If you're interested in getting involved, the
Global Executive Lead for International Mentoring is seeking a project
manager. If you think you have the requisite skills and would like to
join this exciting project, please check it out on our Volunteer
Roles page.
In other news, PWN Milan has been working hard
to build a new global partnership with luxury brand Marina Rinaldi.
Events will be launched with the brand in 9 of our city networks. This
is a great demonstration of how solidarity in our network is helping
make PWN's growth possible. We hope that this experience will open the
doors to new partnerships of this kind.
Finally, we are working to advance the TandeMW
Program - an existing gender incubator program that has been fully
tested in PWN Lyon - to become a globally available program. Watch
this space.....
In short, there are a lot of projects that are
underway. Our energy and motivation levels are high and we are
committed to to building a successful future for our network, and for
each of us. If you'd like to get involved in supporting any of these
projects as a volunteer, please do get in
touch. We would love to hear from you!
Enjoy this period of rest, and we'll see you in
the Autumn.
Have a great summer!
Please feel free to share our newsletter with
your own networks that you think would like to know more about the PWN
Global network.
Warmest regards from your dedicated
