Global WINConference 2014 – 1.2.3 (4) October, Berlin, Germany

Women’s International Networking is an independent global women’s leadership organization. WIN develops, empowers and connects leaders with a feminine, authentic and global vision. It is a reference for women working internationally and companies active in women’s leadership and diversity & inclusion. It runs the women’s preferred global leadership forum – the WINConference, the WINCorporate Network Group, the WIN Development Fund and the WINCommunity.

Our initiatives are designed to listen and reflect to the desires of the modern working woman and to the companies of the future. Our programs provide a platform and an environment aimed to help individuals and organizations move forward, realize their potential and focus on each person’s authentic contribution.

WIN encourages individuals to stretch their comfort zones- to explore, listen, observe, note down, and make discoveries and most importantly to be curious. The global authentic feminine leader comes to life when they follow their intuition and knowledge. These skills are tools, servicing wisdom in action. They take up their natural space and care and nurture and fearlessly commit.

A pioneer in the field of professional women’s events and leadership journeys on a global scale, WIN inspires leaders, to run companies and initiatives with noble values, and to fully live their own lives with beauty and enthusiasm. It accelerates change by developing, empowering and connecting leaders to a global, authentic and feminine vision. Your story becomes part of a bigger vision.

“WIN is like a shining diamond, brilliant and transparent, and I believe you are as well.
Let’s polish the diamond and soften the edges, as even more of its brilliance can be seen as it comes into form. Let’s aim to unclutter, simplify, clarify and why not, glorify…. Let’s open up and shine as we plan and let 2014 unfold”. ~ Kristin Engvig, WIN founder

Anne Edelstam is attending WIN … huge women’s business conference in Berlin, Germany and will be presenting her book … to over 750 people. …lets wish her luck!

Anne Edelstam is a journalist, writer, and photographer currently living in Paris and the third of three generations of women with close connections to Egypt.

Three Ladies in Cairo is the fictionalized true story of how three Swedish women – grandmother Hilda, mother Ingrid, and Anne herself. Together they discover Egypt throughout the twentieth century’s social changes, up to the country’s first free elections in June 2012.

All three learn to cope with the colossal social and cultural differences, born and bred in Sweden and residing in the Middle East … life-styles covering more than a century of these three women’s experiences.

The book offers deep and extended perspectives on Egypt’s politics, economical and traditional societies – the vantage points of both outsiders and insiders.

As a social anthropologist, Islamic historian, and international journalist, Anne weaves ancient Egyptian history with modern day politics which many readers identify as living historical realities. She captures not just the broader pictures behind Egypt’s history and political upheavals, but identifies the realities through three Swedish women eye-witnesses living in Egypt during the dramatic historical changes …”

This is a MUST read book, for anyone who wants to understand what was and is happening in Egypt today !

The WIN AWARD

Each year WIN honours distinguished women for their dedication and hardwork; women who have inspired others whilst embodying WIN’s principles of the authentic, global and feminine leader. In keeping with WIN’s own mission, we look for women who develop others and who mobilize people to thrive and to create flourishing communities and businesses.

We choose women whose work has touched those around them and who may not have received previous public acknowledgment of their work.. WIN will also consider candidates who may already be recognized by the public, but rather than focus on their “public role” will recognize them for their impact away from the spotlight, where their work has contributed to the improvement of their community and society.

Awards are presented at the Global, Japan and India WINConferences
