August Events

MEET & GREET 29TH AUGUST

For its summer edition our Meet and Greet event is moving to the sea side ! 

Let's enjoy a walk together along the beach to connect, get to know and even help each other with a peer coaching walk ! 

We'll meet at 6:30pm on the beach in front of the yacht club of Villeneuve Loubet, then start walking along the sea for about an hour.  We'll create small groups of speed dating/coaching to get to know each other and exchange on one of your challenges of the moment during the walk.   

For those of you who can stay after 8pm, we'll have a drink and/or dinner in a restaurant at the Villeneuve Loubet's marina.

We can arrange to pick you up from the Villeneuve Loubet railway station.

Take rest, 'la rentrée' comes full of events

22TH SEPTEMBER - WEBINAR   AT 13H00-14H00 CET 

After the success of the Nice Lunch, there will be a webinar with the topic:  Is Jealousy holding you back from living your full potential?

- Do you feel ashamed of being jealous of other women's success?
- Do you wish you could help others without feeling you might loose something?

Knowledge makes us free as Greek were saying. One perspective that change the perception. Observing or being affected directly or indirectly by jealousy makes person feel and act in particular way,  own way. I invite you to this session as a journey of this feeling in human society to see how it changes the colors and affects.

The webinar is hosted by PWN member Tatyana Lushchikova!

Mentoring programmes

ONLINE ENTREPRENEURS PEER GROUP PILOT – NEXT MEETING 22 AUGUST THEN EVERY THREE WEEKS FROM 8H00 TO 9H00

We often hear that entrepreneurship is lonely and the journey to success long and filled with valuable lessons.  This is why we created an online peer group of entrepreneurs within PWN Cote d’Azur in April this year.  The aim is to share knowledge, our experiences and accelerate the learning journey.  There are currently 3 members who are getting to know each other, testing different formats to understand their own needs and co-developing the space needed for their learning.  It is a flexible format in which anyone can dip in and dip out of depending on their time available.  The next meeting will take place on 22 August from 8 to 9am.  It will run every three weeks until the end of the year.  If you are interested in joining and contributing to the learning of this group, please send an email to mentoring@pwnnice.net so that you can be included in the invitations to these meetings.  Depending on the result of the pilot this year, we may offer this group format to members in 2024.

GROUP MENTORING PROGRAMMES

Two group mentoring pilot programmes were introduced in 2023.  The aim was to increase the number of members who were able to benefit and gain value from the mentoring programme. They are currently in progress and this is what some of the participants are saying:

Personal Identity: "Maeva and Marine's Personal Branding and Identity programme helped me to understand my own roots and what I choose to keep going forward. It has given me a deeper understanding of how I function and who I would like to be. They both held a caring and empathetic space and their mindfulness and body work enabled me to tap into inner resources and build balance into my life. Taking the time out to work on myself is a great investment." Jacqui Syndercombe

How to integrate sustainability into your daily job - “I initially joined this Group Mentoring to hear from others' view and challenges around sustainability, at work and in their personal environment. I sometimes feel alone with this continuous battle to drive awareness, influence and try to change mindsets. Outcomes from our first discussions were beyond expectations, as I could see hope and multiple positive angles, the picture is not fully black. It also helped me to deepen in my company's CSR and realise that many initiatives were actually ongoing, with more and more employees on-board and keen to contribute. I believe in small individual efforts to develop collective dynamics.” Coralie Martinez-Ciais.

2024 Mentoring programme – applications start end October at an event: date to be announced soon.

Our individual mentoring programme runs from January to November of each year and the objective is to support members to achieve their objectives, whether they are personal/professional development, corporate intrapreneurship projects, or entrepreneurial projects. Planning for the 2024 programme will begin with an informative event at the end of October where potential participants will be able to meet and exchange with the mentors.  Places on the programme are limited and we will be asking applicants to motivate why they would like to participate.  Applications for 2024 will start at the event and will close at the end of November.  If you would like to apply for this flagship programme, please look out for further communication and confirmation of the dates in our newsletters and on our website.
