Womenspire "Power of Encouragement"

Have you ever pretended to be somebody else at work?

Do you feel that you have to put a mask on when you enter the office?

Save the date for the Womenspire event “POWER OF ENCOURAGEMENT” on the 25th of June.#ConfidentToBeYourself #Diversity #Womenspire2.0 #Womensnetwork

Get a chance to meet people brave enough to take of the masks, and share with you their authentic life-stories!

Meet Bettina Kallai, who will talk about diversity as she is a Romani-Hungarian woman and grew up in Belgium. Her identity has been formed by the multicultural environment, constant encounters with prejudice made her feel insecure. Now – with the help of encouraging friends and colleagues she believes that with their support she can overcome all obstacles. Bettina is working as a Sales Account Representative in commercial team at GE.

Then listen to an honest interview with Raffaella and Michael Pinto. Rafaella is a stay at home mom and Michael is working at GE as Global Project Management Leader. Raffaella and Michael are married and have two teenage kids. They will share very personal and life-changing moments with us. Raffaella’s decision to stay home with the kids and her life-threating illness. Michael will talk about a moment of sudden change in his career and the importance of communication with family. You will witness a true-life story with a positive and encouraging message.

We will close the event with a Gypsy-Jazz live concert, so the music can nourish our souls while we network.

The event is sponsered by Women’s Network of General Electric to have a intimate dialogue about diversity and courage.
