Break out sessions

1. Rituals

How you can become more aware of your superpowers

Life can be hectic and overwhelming, especially if – as working women – we try to combine it with everything we want to be & achieve. A meaningful career, a wonderful relationship, good health, time with friends, finances under control and possibly being a great mum on top of it all. Is it possible to do it all? Yes. Because as women, we have superpowers. But too often we forget to use them. In this workshop, at the example of a personal story, you get the reminder & tools how to use your superpowers and live life to its fullest with ease and trust.

2. Essent

Gaining and maintaining energy during the working week

The work week has many dilemmas and challenges that sometimes drain energy. Energy you need to make the right decisions and get ahead. How to create the right team around you with people who strengthen. How do you keep making business choices without losing your personality and what role does coaching have in that? What role do you take up within the company and within your network? About you and her challenges, Resi Becker talks to you. Experts will share their perspectives and give concrete tools on how to counteract energy loss.

3. Booking.com

Revolutionising the way we look at careers

Helping you own and plan your career story
Research tells us that we typically spend 90,000 hours of your life at work. That’s over 10 years when you work it out concurrently, making it vital that we make the right career decisions.

Life, roles and skills requirements change so rapidly that the career plans can be outdated even before they are written. To meet these many changes we need to start to adapt our approach and focus from career planning to opportunity readiness! This workshop will explore where you want to take your careers to AND most importantly HOW can you be in the best shape possible to optimise on opportunities when they come your way.

At the end of the session you will walk away with clear insights, tools and next steps to build your opportunity readiness plan.

2. Money moves by ABN AMRO

Does your money work for you or do you work for your money? Most women think that finance and money is just “not their thing”. Or it seems to be something we can put off. Women live on average 3 years longer than men, work part-time more often and build up less pension so in fact we need more money! Women have long been lagging behind when it comes to financial education so now is the time to get serious about your finances. ABN AMRO organises a special session on how to strengthen your finances and make managing your money a priority. Join this workshop and get practical tips on how to start building your investment portfolio!

3. Improve your wellbeing in the workplace by Rituals

If we want to get more women in decision making roles, we need to focus on the wellbeing of women. This workshop will be about reducing women’s stress level, both at work & at home, and making them more rested and energized.

During this breakout session, Rituals will will offer you various tools for wellbeing. You are going to learn about the importance of sleep for your brain, the importance of relaxation and consequences of stress on your body & mental health, and we will teach you some breathing exercises for deep focus.
