Women as Global Role Models

This past Tuesday I gave a presentation at the Women in Leadership Forum in Munich organized by QS Top Career Forums (www.qsforums.com). The event was a recruiting and networking forum attended by top companies like DaimlerChrysler, Roland Berger, Shell and several others to speak with the best and brightest global women who are expected to be the next generation of female leaders.

The women who attended my workshop were incredibly savvy and intelligent young women from around the world who were interested in finding the perfect job and career. I told them that what I wanted most for them was to not only attract that perfect job and career, but to go beyond that to embrace their true passion and purpose in life so that they could become global role models for others.

We spoke about the personal and professional benefits of becoming Global Role Models in their organizations, families and communities. For me the basis of being a role model is having a strong personal foundation. Practicing that is a life-long process. All of them agreed that they could reach their personal and professional goals faster and more efficiently by partnering with the right life coach, business coach, mentor or support group.

My challenge to them (and to you, if you choose to accept it), is to find a coach with whom you connect well and who can move you forward to an EXTRAORDINARY life!
