An invitation to the women of the H-T community to join us for an eWomenNetwork Accelerated Networking dinner event, this Tuesday, Oct 23, 6-8:30 pm at the Delaney House in Holyoke. featuring inspiring social entrepreneur, Amber Chand, www.amberchand.com <http://www.amberchand.com/> , founder of the Amber Chand Collection: Global Gifts for Peace and Understanding, speaking on A Feminine Paradigm for Business: Strategy That Supports, Strengthens and Serves >From her site: The Amber Chand Collection offers unique gifts created by talented craftswomen who live in regions of conflict and post-conflict. Each object we present is an expression of skilled workmanship and design emerging out of rich, vibrant cultural traditions in which women are often the keepers of the creative flame. We work with craftswomen who are the inadvertent victims of war, genocide and civil strife - and celebrate women's hands as a force for peace and women's voices as the enduring strength of their fragile communities. (here's a clip on youtube, a inspiring preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qEGNaDNeSI) Amber will share: * Her amazing story * Lessons learned and her current vision, * The transformative role that business as a creative enterprise can play in fostering peace and prosperity in our communities. * Examples of how she is applying these principles to her work with women around the globe. Amber will also have a selection of handcrafted items available at the event for purchase, for those seeking beautiful, meaningful holiday gifts and additions to their personal collections. She has an amazing story to tell and tremendous wisdom to share from her own personal experience. We will also have a Q & A time. At our "Accelerated Networking" events, we enjoy a wonderful dinner and an inspiring speaker, and the women attending sit at 2 different tables, with facilitated exchanges creating valuable opportunities to build relationships with other women and share who you are, what you have to offer, and what you are specifically looking for. We want to help you get accelerated access to the ideas, resources and connections that will help you advance and grow, and ask each woman to generously share from her wealth of experience and own personal network.
