”For me, it wasn't the information that I learned as much as that it was life changing. I had so many aha moments where I got to explore different backgrounds in a rich platform of diverse cultures. I have developed my skills in the development sector with no mentor, unfortunately, and for me everything in this forum was useful and helpful information

”I learned new terminologies in leadership and gender realm. I learned about global development and met amazing women from all around the world…I enjoyed attending almost all sessions. I loved the tools that were provided in the Leadership FailLab sessions and the other one on addressing mental health at the workplace. I already started applying this in my non-profit.

”I really appreciated when we spoke about Feminist Leadership. I felt inspired to get this concept and put it into practice in my company and my country and try to empower women all over the states in Brazil to become the best version of themselves… I’ve learned a lot about mental health, salary negotiation and leadership skills. I am planning on giving a workshop at my current company and one I am an alumni at.
