MAKING THE GLOBAL LOCAL AND THE LOCAL GLOBAL

A different style of networking

TUESDAY 19 JUNE 2018

Global Woman Club is an ever growing network where members enjoy many benefits, including the delightful breakfast served in a wonderful setting. What we really love about the Global Woman platform is that it brings together a high quality of women from all around the world and they feel comfortable with each other….. In every gathering we feel that we are returning back home.



BOOK YOUR TICKET HERE

We welcome you to the Global Woman Club New York business breakfast on Tuesday 19 June 2018.  

Mindy Gibbins-Klein, originally from New York, has been a member of Global Woman London from almost the beginning and has attended and been a speaker at many Global Woman events over the last two years. This is how we grow the Global Woman community and locations –  it always starts from women attending the Global Woman events and breakfasts, building trustful, mutually beneficial, and warm relationships. Mindy will be dividing here time between London and New York to run the Global Woman Club in New York.

On 14th and 15th July 2018 we will be holding the annual Global Woman Summit in New York, and the Inspirational Awards for Women at a Gala Dinner. Our regional directors from other countries and some international delegates will also attend the New York breakfast on 16th July. Keep the dates in your diary. 

In 2017 we held the Global Woman Awards in London,  Global Woman Summit in Tirana Albania, The Businessswoman Today conference in London, Phenomenal Global Woman conference in Hollywood, and partnered with the Inspiration Awards for Women in London, with well known celebrities and also celebrating unsung heroes/heroines. 

The model for the Global Woman Club breakfasts runs something like this: Arrive at around 8.30am, help yourself to tea/coffee or orange juice and the buffet breakfast and then do some initial networking, introductions and say a few words possibly on the Facebook Live video, as Mindy Gibbins-Klein, your host and organiser, introduces you to the Global Woman community. Mindy will start the event at around 9.10am to introduce herself and give an overview. At Global Woman Club breakfasts, club members are all given the opportunity to speak for two minutes to the room and first time attendees can sign up on the day and immediately enjoy the additional benefits. They share their personal story, or their mission and vision, and talk about their business. There is no set order for speakers, some prefer to speak earlier, others later.

After about an hour there is a break for a drink, a little more from the buffet breakfast, and engage with others in conversation. We then gather everyone together and ask you to smile or wave for the group picture! After that, back to your seats and the second half for speaking to the room. This has an end time of 11.30am and it has become a tradition now that a number will stay and have lunch for further conversations. Members can leave brochures or leaflets on the table by the entrance/exit or on the chairs during the break.



Non-members can attend one breakfast. Only members can speak to the room,  Members can attend any breakfast in a one year period, at any location, and speak there. We have Global Woman Clubs in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Stockholm, Oslo, Chicago, Los Angeles, Milan, and of course, New York. In April,  Vienna will launch, followed by Gothenburg (Sweden) in May and Johannesburg South Afirca in June. More are planned for the second half of 2018.

In London, the room at Savini at Criterion Piccadilly Circus in London is always full with around 35 people and every seat is taken. We anitcipate the same for New York too so it is best to book early to be sure of an entry ticket.

Global Woman Business Club has evolved from Global Woman magazine, sharing so many great and inspirational stories and often bringing these women together to connect and share in person. Speak to anyone who has attended and they will say that it is unique and different to any other networking event they have been to. It has a warm, relaxed and supportive energy, and everyone is open and authentic. It is about building relationships and seeking mutually beneficial collaborations from a rich cultural diversity of women, very successful in what they do, but in such a broad range of professions and businesses.

BOOK YOUR TICKET HERE

What they share in common is to serve a social and human good and purpose in whatever they do. For the entrepreneurs, it is to profit with a purpose. For career professionals, it is to succeed with a purpose. We often refer to it as the ‘Life purpose’.

It is the combination of all these magical ingredients that sprinkle a glowing sense of empowerment and happiness. United we are stronger and ready to face any challenges we are experiencing or may meet.



Get a sense of the occasion by viewing a snapshot of the action and hear what the women have to say in the video here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cT9KWhfNNtA&sns=em

Our aim is to connect professional and businesswomen around the world, and we are celebrating together, knowing that many of us may have come from different countries, different backgrounds and even being at different stages of life and our profession or business but we all have something in common: the drive and the passion to succeed in business or our chosen vocation.

BOOK YOUR TICKET HERE

Global Woman Business Club helps women to build their confidence and belief that they can be successful in whatever they do. We help them build their brand and create awareness about their projects through our media platform.



We are now in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Stockholm, Oslo, Milan, Vienna, Los Angeles, New York, Nottingham, and Birmingham UK with more planned for 2018,  

If you are interested to join our club and want to know the benefits of being a member, please send us an email to club@globalwoman.co

We do take pictures and share on Facebook (join us and see them at the Global Woman Club group) and on the Global Woman website www.globalwoman.co

If you are like most professionals you struggle to get your message hear...

If you are like most professionals you struggle to get your message heard above the din of everybody else.  You put time, effort and money into marketing, networking and making connections, but results are expensive and laborious.  

Yet you offer a great service that makes a difference.  

We understand the problem and have seen how individuals and teams run themselves ragged and bankrupt working to grow their businesses.  


But it doesn't have to be that way.  By simplifying your messaging and telling a story that both expresses your brand and engages your audience you can enhance the power of your marketing communications and see amazing results.  

We can show you how to do this. 


In our one day session, we will teach you our brandstory framework and guide you to: 

• Define yourself in your customers' terms. 

• Craft an engaging story. 

• Plan your new, more efficient, marketing.

This one day workshop will give you the tools you need to dramatically enhance your sales and marketing initiatives which will lead you to significantly improve the efficiency of your outreach and communication efforts. 

This isn't magic, but rather a tried and true storytelling technique that humans have been using for centuries.  Using these stories solves the three key issues with marketing messages that we face today: 


• People aren't interested in you.  They are interested in what you can do for them.
  

• People remember the problem you solve, not how you solve it. 

• People won't do the work to understand you. 

Join us, change the way you sell what you do and have the best year ever.  

If you want to get started today: Download our Brandstory guide here to get started today.  

And register now, so we'll see you at the workshop!

UNDP will convene the 2018 Annual Meeting on Strengthening the Rule of Law and Human Rights for Sustaining Peace and Fostering Development in June as a platform to examine and reaffirm its intention to support global efforts to uphold the rule of law and respect for human rights through the Global RoL/HR Programme, the Global Focal Point, the Tri-Partite Partnership, and its other engagements across the system in the human rights and rule of law areas. The 2018 Annual Meeting aims not only to report back on the work facilitated through the Global RoL/HR Programme, but more broadly to probe and highlight how the UN system should orient its combined efforts to support national partners’ efforts to strengthen justice, security, and respect for human rights. As one of the few recurring global-level events within the UN system dedicated exclusively to rule of law and human rights assistance, the 2018 Annual Rule of Law and Human Rights Meeting provides a singular platform for a wide range of stakeholders to shape the international agenda for rule of law and human rights assistance.

The Annual Meeting will be held in New York, from the morning of Tuesday 19 June, through the afternoon of Friday 22 June. Participants will include high-level UN officials, Permanent Representatives and ministerial-level national counterparts, partners from Member States and from across the UN System, and representatives from think tanks, academia, and civil society.

The high-level plenary session will now be held the morning of Wednesday 20 June, in the auditorium of Japan Society. Likewise, the afternoon session dedicated to taking stock of the UN Global Focal Point for Police, Justice and Corrections will be held Wednesday 20 June. Thematic roundtables will be held throughout the day on Tuesday 19 June. This year’s Symposium on Rule of Law, Human Rights and Sustaining Peace will be held on Thursday 21 June, and will explore three key themes: The Rule of Law and the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus; Achieving Access to Justice for All through SDG 16; and National Human Rights Institutions throughout 25 Years of the Paris Principles.

Please check back frequently, as this page will be updated as details are confirmed. Individual questions can be directed to Ms. Christi Sletten (christi.sletten@undp.org).

Join our neighbors from the Taoist Tai Chi Society for an introductory practice of the different moves included in the basic Tai Chi set. Tai Chi is learned by doing: the instructor will demonstrate, then perform the moves with the class, and finally watch the students as they repeat them. Movements are believed to help calm the emotions, focus the mind, and strengthen the immune system.

People of all ages and conditions can learn.

Tai Chi is subject to cancellation due to weather. Check @highlinenyc on Twitter for updates.

*Invitation Only Event*

Navigating Climate Engineering as an Investor

Join the Climate Solutions Collaborative (C2C) on Tuesday, June 19th in New York City, 10:00am - 1:00pm ET at Thomson Reuters in Times Square for an in–depth workshop to explore how foundations and investors can engage around climate engineering to foster the responsible deployment of these solutions. This 3-hour discussion will provide scientific background about the potential dangers of geoengineering, a global governance status update, and insight about the companies and managers that stand to benefit from implementation. The session will also explore shareholder engagement strategies for managing portfolio risk around private climate engineering. Facilitation will feature presentations and interactive breakouts to immerse participants in these complicated topics. Lunch will be provided.

 

Background

For years, scientists have warned us, with increasing levels of urgency, of the need to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in order to prevent devastating changes to our climate and, by extension, all of humanity. A shortage of political and cultural will to take action is propelling the prospect of this scenario toward becoming an unavoidable reality. A report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, expected later this year, promises a dire warning and wake-up call to all of those who have been sitting on the sidelines.

Tackling climate change will require bold solutions. Climate engineering projects involving large-scale efforts to remove greenhouse gasses (mainly CO2) from the atmosphere, and to manage solar radiation, are a central part of this discussion. A small group of scientists and business interests have been advancing these emerging technologies, with discussions taking place outside of government circles and in a small number of private and government labs. While the prospect of such large-scale impact can be attractive, current global frameworks are ill prepared to effectively manage projects with far-reaching implications for both people and the planet.

Questions remain for responsible investors: Are these technologies suited for solutions-oriented climate and energy investors? What are the ethical and moral implications of such approaches, and will there be challenges when it comes to public perception, political power dynamics and global governance structures? Who has the hand on the thermostat if we truly end up being able to control the global temperature? How can investors engage with the companies driving this agenda? Are these approaches too immature for early investors and, if so, who should bear the cost and responsibility for the research and development of these technologies?

We hope that you will join us for this watershed discussion, as we look to advance the responsible deployment of climate solutions.

 

Speakers will Include: 

Drew Jones, Co-Director, Climate Interactive

Irene Krarup, Executive Director, V. Kann Rasmussen Foundation

Dana Lanza, CEO, Confluence Philanthropy

Simon Nicholson, Assistant Professor of International Relations, Director of the Global Environmental Politics Program, School of International Service, American University

June is here and if you’re like everyone else, you’re looking for ways to learn, especially if it involves free lunch. Good news! BP@T is celebrating Juneteenth with a Lunch & Learn in New York City and streamed in Atlanta. Ranger Sean Ghazala, from the NYC African Burial Ground National Monument, will go in depth in the history of Juneteenth and the Burial Ground, followed by a Q&A through sli.do.

 A Juneteenth themed lunch will be available for purchase in the NYC Park Cafe.




What Is Juneteenth?

Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States. On June 19th, 1865, Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, TX two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, with news that the Civil War had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Reaction to this profound news by now the formerly enslaved was met with both shock and jubilation. While the journey of Black Americans was met with countless challenges that still impact their descendants today, June 19, coined "Juneteenth" has become evolved from a celebration in Texas to a larger celebration for descendants of the enslaved to rejoice the freedom from bondage.
