Women in Business is a unique leadership program inspired by Helen E. Fisher's research on women's natural leadership abilities. The main focus is on valuing and developing the feminine leadership skills.

 We are in the middle of a paradigm shift where women’s unique talents and strengths are asked for across the world – in thecorporate businesses, politics, society and leadership.

Program content

We will meet nine times during nine months and you will recieve personal coaching 16 times.

We will look into and develop women’s unique leadership talents throughout the program. Helen Fisher’s research shows that women’s specific  abilities are: creativity, empathy, networking, verbal, intuition, win-win attitude, negotiation skills, mental flexibility, the gift of reading people, fantasy, "web thinking", and the ability to analyze complex social structures in a broad, contextual long term way.

"As the female mind becomes unleashed on our modern world, societies will benefit - even in lands where it is currently shackled." Helen Fisher, Ph.D.

We will also work on:

•  Feminine leadership.
• Individual goals, plans and strategies...
•  The courage to always be a woman.  
•  Women’s natural leadership skills and your specific talents and strengths.
•  Empowerment – and how we get energy and support each other.
•  Feminine wisdom and our inheritance from our fore mothers.
•  Taking care of yourself before taking care of others’.
•  There is a special place on earth for women who support each other.
•  Women’s sexuality as a source of power.
•  Take place inside your body and be heard at work.
•  Spirituality in daily life – a natural Andlighet i vardagen - en natual fact.
•  Women’s power - a win-win concept.
•  Feminine and masculine – inside and in relation to other’s.
•  Discover, develop and live your full feminine potential!

Method

We walk our talk

Our work method is based on our collected wisdom, experience and education in the areas of; leadership, teambuilding, personal- and spiritual development, psychology, psychotherapy, coaching, mentoring, Bioenergetics, meditation and mindfullness.

We work individually, in couples, triads and with the group as a whole. We will use music, pictures, stillness and reflection, mindfullness, feedback, coaching, dance, mentoring, gestalt, physical exersices, dialogue, home work, and more...

We will lead the feminine way. We always have a clear plan for each group meeting, but give ourselves the freedom to create new exercises in response to the moment, and follow and support each individual's potential.

Our work method will support and give you:

• Raising your conscious awareness.

• Bringing clarity to your goals and visions and create a direction for your development.

• Models and new ways of thinking - for your life and feminine leadership.

• Becoming deeply satisfied with yourself as a woman in every moment.

• Being with what is, as it is, without changing life in order to handle it better.

• Keeping your heart open regardless of what life offers you.

• Developing your feminine talents, in order to see other's potential and supporting their growth.

• Understand that you are unique and valued as the woman you are - and realizing that life would be missing a vital part without you.
