Empowering Resilience, Redefining Women’s Leadership

We are delighted to invite you to an exclusive event featuring the inspirational Dr Kamel Hothi OBE, hosted by WSP, sponsored by Newsom Consulting and Network Rail.

 

Redefining Strength

Join us for a compelling keynote session where Dr Kamel Hothi OBE from TLC Lions will redefine the concept of strength for women leaders and explore:

1. Resilience and Adaptability: Discover how true strength lies in resilience and the ability to adapt to change. Embrace your capacity to overcome challenges and thrive in dynamic environments.
2. Breaking Stereotypes: Challenge traditional notions of strength. Celebrate vulnerability, empathy, and collaboration as vital aspects of powerful leadership. Embrace your authentic self and break free from limiting stereotypes.
3. Inner Power: Tap into your mental fortitude, emotional intelligence, and self-belief. Trust your instincts and stand firm in your convictions to harness your inner strength.
4. Support Networks: Recognise the importance of community and support networks. Empower each other by building strong connections and lifting one another up.
5. Balance and Self-Care: Understand that true strength involves balance. Prioritise wellbeing and remember that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
