The Entrepreneurs Journey
Are you yearning for freedom and independence of realizing your dream and of being your own boss? Being passionate, curious and hungry are the key ingredients to stay on the journey of bringing your vision to life.
You may have a business idea cocking slowly in the back of your mind or, just a concept you believe could work, and that you are sure to be the right person to bring it to life. Even when savoring the challenge seems exciting and inspiring, the uncharted ocean of entrepreneurship may look as a vast extension of unforeseeable nature. The need for certainty, and the doubts about the eventual success of your business idea may strike you with paralysis.
On the other hand, if you are already on the entrepreneurship journey, you may feel lonely at times, and lacking the sense of community — having feedback and sharing ideas with peers.
Whether you have a business idea to begin an entrepreneurial journey, but don’t know how to go ahead or, you have a business already running and you want to take it to the next level, this is the right place for you.
Why the PWN Global Entrepreneurship Program?
The world needs more entrepreneurs and at PWN Global we want to encourage Professional Women to pursue and achieve their business ideas and professional purpose.
Our PWN Global Entrepreneurship Program ‘Developing Business, through Mind, Body and Heart’ is a hands-on resource for you —at any stage of your journey— to enrich your personal, professional and business talents and capacities, develop and foster sustainable goals, build trust and relationships through collaborative efforts, and to discover what’s uniquely yours, to grow into and succeed in it.
Why is this program different?
As an entrepreneur the success of the goals you pursue, depend not only on your managerial and business knowledge, but also on the care and protection of your invisible business assets — your core values alignment and own physical wellbeing are part of it.
Through a comprehensive approach, the PWN Global Entrepreneurship Program ‘Developing Business, through Mind, Body and Heart’ delves into both, the human foundation –your values, your biology— and the business strategic knowledge and competencies development necessary not only for your venture to thrive, also for you to embody the drive to achieve a sustainable growth.
A global community of like-minded people
At PWN we support our members while giving them the opportunity to interact with smart and interesting people who can help them grow their business. We connect people from our global and dynamic community of entrepreneurs across Europe.
Through the interaction on the forum’s Program, the peer coaching circles and our PWN Global Entrepreneurs and PWN Global Doing Business Linkedin Groups —all members exclusive—, the PWN Global Entrepreneurship Program offers you, not only the support, resources and network to achieve your goals, but also importantly the stamina to change the conversation from what you can’t do, to what you can.
This program will cover aspects such as:
- Your personal needs
- Your values
- Your wellbeing and health
- The impact your work might have on your family and your relationships
- Moving your idea forward
- Developing your unique business model – strategies and competencies
- Running and growing a successful business
- Managing uncertainty and ambiguity
- Building trust
- The art of negotiation
- Marketing and sales tools and channels
- Taking the next level and finding the right partner.

Testimonials
Here are just a few testimonials from people who have already taken part in the program:
"I enrolled in the PWN Virtual Entrepreneurship Program to learn the nitty-gritty of managing ones own small business and because I find PWN Munich a credible community.
I totally agree with the general holistic approach that covered topics of psychical energy, well-being and personal values gradually narrowing down to the business model canvas. Precious are the networking opportunities with the organizers and peer members.
I would recommend this program both to entrepreneurs with some experience and to complete novice. It is good value for money and is tailor-made for women who are often multitasking and strive to fit together family/career/personal space.”
