Why I wrote this book?

photoThe content of the book “Confrontation 9” came as an inspiration when I decided to launch a Youth Initiative for Women Leadership program to mentor and create powerful voices of our youth, especially young women, as legacies.

Two years ago, after founding “World Women Global Council,” a global platform for women working for advocacy to action-based initiatives, my mentor motivated me to narrate my long journey of work, lessons learnt, experiences shared, and best practices delivered in different areas of human capital.

“Gender equality is not an option…we must teach our sons not to negotiate this right for their mothers and their sisters and as they grow to share this culture with their wives and daughters”—- Dr. Dilshad Deyani

I started thinking about it and questioned myself as to how I can leave a legacy after 19 years of work with women from different cultures. There were significant pieces of learning which I had embraced in my personal journey working as an advocate for women’s rights, a diversity coach, and most importantly, an immigrant mother of two. Giving back through different formats of learning always fascinated me. However, in this journey, the book was yet another medium powerful enough to share a strong message that resonated cultural elements which play a very significant role to define a woman’s success.

“How do we build the courage to question traditions, norms, cultural values and media conditioning in order to build our own unique definition of success, balance and culture map that satisfies our talents, capacities and family dynamics?”

I wanted to relate my experience working with different multicultural women coming into this country and how at various points we all struggled to live our dreams from building a new home to realizing freedom of aspirations. Therefore, this book has attempted to incorporate my journey cultural challenges and process of acculturation along with the cognitive and self-help tools of questioning, so we can help each other search and redefine a personalized map of meaningful success, abundance and fulfillment.
