Mahatma Gandhi wisely said that we should be the change we want to see in the world. As a people, this has never been as relevant as it is today. The human race has persevered in the face of many challenges and has continued to progress toward civilisation and sophistication of technology which in turn brings other challenges requiring more energy to transform and empower pre-existing structures to, therefore, achieve greater success together.
Resonance Consulting Services is an innovative consulting firm that offers great value specific to conducting research, and monitoring and evaluation underpinning organisational progress. We assist organisations to understand how to engage their strengths in order to maximise results. In order to achieve this, we champion transformation and facilitate dialogue in organisations to develop a culture of acceptance and support.
As part of one aspect of the transformation processes that we promote we have partnered with Engagement Dynamics and have together produced a unique and one-of-a-kind leadership development event called Wo-men of Influence. This exclusive event is personally tailored to support a deep developmental exploration for both men and women so that the empowerment of women is embraced, nurtured and promoted. This programme further assists those in attendance to overcome high-pressure challenges that women face on a daily basis, whilst foregrounding their own inherent strengths.
We launched our programme at Morrells Boutique Venue in Northcliff on 9 April 2018, which was extremely successful and provided the opportunity for women to connect with like-minded women of influence and spend time focussing on their own personal leadership growth. The words of Don Clifton resonate:
There is no more an effective way to empower people than to see each person in terms of his or her strengths.”
Dr. Rajab reflects – What a powerful group of women, each with their own strengths, experiences, perspectives and challenges. Yet, it brought us together. I have always believed that when powerful women come together magic happens. The connection was vibrant, exciting and yet soulful, honest and searching. The delegates loved our programme and everyone came away from the event asking for more.
New ideas were following. “We need men to attend this event so that we can relate to our differences in a positive way”, said one. “I will be sending all my staff to your next one” said another. “Please have an event such as this for all women, even those outside of the corporate environment”. “I enjoyed the diversity and the sharing of experiences”……and so the list went on. “This was not only soul-satisfying but made me realise that as individuals we may be different but at our core, each of us is the same. Women all over the world can and do influence their worlds for change” says Dr. Rooksana Rajab after the workshop.
We have therefore promised to host our next event very soon. If you are interested in attending one of our next Wo-men of Influence events, join our mailing list, by clicking the link:
