Connect & Communicate - through sharing personal stories; prompts are available to ignite stories that may have been long forgotten.
Listen Deeply to each other - Through the practice of fertile listening women have the opportunity to be heard in a way that they cannot help but blossom.
Celebrate and Validate - A place where the validation and celebration offered reinforces each woman’s understanding of the impact they offer from sharing their lived experience with an audience.
The different elements of our time together will enable us to take down the mask that is so easy to wear in regular networking events.
WomanSpeak led spaces are a place where women cultivate self-trust and uncover their deeply held knowledge and aspirations.
The sharing of stories throughout the gathering is in pairs or small groups and some ladies attending have an opportunity to share their story with the whole group which is purely optional.
WomanSpeak Connect
Where the personal inspires business and where business becomes personal - in a good way.
This is no ordinary networking...
- To start the event there will be an explanation of the event proceedings and the women will be introduced to two powerful WomanSpeak practices- Fertile Listening and Celebration & Validation
- Three rounds of two women sharing a story with each other. This sharing is short and snappy (4 mins) just allowing the words to flow. It is encouraged to repeat the story three times so to develop the story each time it is given.
- After the women have shared, the other woman offers celebrations which is a way of reflecting back what stood out to them. This is a way of validating the women sharing and reinforce how they are seen and heard and how this is valuable.
Next.... - Two women share a story with the group. Inspired by their sharing in the small groups. Followed by celebrations from the women in the room.
- Break 10 min
- Storyteller of the month (pre-organised) - a 7 min story from their life
- Repeat of the first half format.
- Closing, where women share what has stood out for them from their time together.
- Exchange contact details, consider organising a buddy up session.
- The End 😊
