SUMMARY:Closing registrations to the CWF 2019 mentoring programs
DESCRIPTION:Dear CWF Members\, \nToday marks the closing day for registering to the CWF mentoring programs. \nWe aim to match high-potential women with senior executive mentors. Mentoring is one of the most efficient activities for the individual’s personal and professional growth. A privileged relationship develops between the Mentee and Mentor\, usually a person with broad experience in an area the Mentee would like to develop in.  The Mentor brings a new perspective to the Mentee and provides her with a base to her reflections\, to reach her specific development goals. The Mentee could aspire to the same king of professional role as the Mentor. She could want to expand specific skills for her career advancement: self-confidence\, financial mastery\, leadership\, etc. Her goal could also be to expand her network in a specific area the Mentor is well introduced in. \nThe CWF offers two different mentoring programs. \nMembers can participate to one program only per year. \nYou can find the details of each program below. \nIf you have any questions\, or comments please do not hesitate to contact us at administration@cwf.ch. \nYours Sincerely\, \nThe CWF Team \n__________________________________________________________________________ \nIndividual Mentoring Program: \n\n\n\n\nAvailable to\nCWF members\n\n\nMentor\nCWF member\n\n\nMentee\nCWF member\n\n\nDuration\n9 months\n\n\nTimeline\nApril-December\n\n\nDeadline for registrations\nMarch 8th\n\n\nLink to submit applications\nIndividual Mentoring Program Form\n\n\n\n  \nYou can register for mentor or mentee or for both roles.

SUMMARY:Business Luncheon with Dame Inga Beale DBE\, First Female CEO of Lloyds of London
DESCRIPTION:Modernising tradition: A journey of technological and cultural change \nLloyds of London: this great\, British and global institution has its roots in marine insurance and was founded by one Edward Lloyd in London’s Tower Street in about 1686. \nFast forward to today and there are about 85 syndicates managed by some 56 managing agencies that collectively write over £30 billion of gross premiums on risks placed by 287 approved brokers. Half the premiums come out of North America and about 30 per cent from Europe. \nHowever\, history and numbers are only part of the story. Dame Inga Beale\, Lloyds first woman CEO in the insurance market’s 328 year history\, will tell us her personal story of changes – cultural and technological – which were necessary to bring this great institution into the truly modern age. \nDame Inga’s illustrious career includes such prominent names as the Prudential\, General Electric (insurance division)\, Converium\, where she led its successful turnaround\, and the Zurich Insurance Group. She has been a Councillor of the British-Swiss Chamber of Commerce. \nIn 2017\, she was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) for services to the economy. \nThis event is organised by the BSCC\, British Swiss Chamber of Commerce. \nOnly members can register through this website.

SUMMARY:Emotional Intelligence in Action: Improv(e) your Interpersonal Skills
DESCRIPTION:Although the term was coined in 1964\, it was only in 1995 that “emotional intelligence” entered the public lexicon\, thanks to Daniel Goleman’s book on the topic\, Emotional Intelligence: Why it Can Matter More than IQ. Since then\, schools\, businesses\, and the media have come to recognize the importance of these “soft skills”\, and more and more leaders are looking to engage with their emotional intelligence to succeed. \nThe CWF WAVE Conference in January brought in a variety of experts who spoke about impactful leadership through emotional intelligence\, which is often defined as the ability to \nRecognize\, understand and manage our own emotions \nRecognize\, understand and influence the emotions of others  \nDaniel Goleman writes that effective leadership through emotional intelligence consists of the following capabilities: \n\nIntrapersonal\n\nSelf-awareness\nSelf-regulation\nMotivation\n\n\nInterpersonal\n\nEmpathy\nSocial awareness and communication\n\n\n\nHow can you begin to hone these skills in your work and personal life? \nWhether you were able to attend the WAVE conference or not\, this interactive workshop is a chance to put some of that theory into practice. Focusing on the interpersonal aspects of emotional intelligence\, you will train to be more in tune with one another\, listen to what is said and what is unsaid\, and learn how to gauge whether your messages are being received accurately. \nThe workshop will help you notice the myriad ways others are communicating with you\, both verbally and non-verbally. Fun\, interactive\, participatory exercises will have everyone on their feet. Through experiential learning\, you will: \n\nDefine your own ways of communicating and leading\nCommunicate your emotions effectively and understand others’ emotions\nChallenge your stereotypes and assumptions about yourself and the viewpoints of those around you\n\nAbout the Training Method \nImprovised comedy (“improv”) teaches important skills such as quick thinking\, cooperation\, active listening\, creativity and leadership. The principles of improv can be applied to the working world for personal development\, team building\, creativity and collective work. Indeed\, around the world companies\, organizations and business schools are teaching their employees and students using methods and mindsets from improv. \nThe Renegade Saints are Geneva’s premiere English-language improv troupe. Onstage\, the Renegade Saints create countless new realities without a script. Offstage\, they bring their skills to the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds across Europe to empower teams to collaborate\, communicate and co-create more efficiently. \nYour trainers \nViki Lazar and Lianne Gonsalves are trainers with the Renegade Saints\, Geneva’s premiere English-language improv troupe. Onstage\, the Renegade Saints create countless new realities without a script. Offstage\, they bring their skills to the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds across Europe to empower teams to collaborate\, communicate and co-create more efficiently.  \n
