#PowerWomenSpeak insights from our network

“Earlier this year I spoke with twenty-two members — approximately a third — of the PowerWomen Network: a culturally diverse cross-industry network of very senior (and rising) business women currently living and working in London. They are a diverse group of powerful women and their observations represent over five hundred combined years of work experience.” . You can view the full document here.

Dr. Jackie Hatton, in collaboration with 22 members.

Executive summary

“Most PowerWomen agree that Women's Networks fill a gap in women's working lives. They provide opportunities to connect and build relationships informally, the same way men have always done with their drinks and their golf and their dinners. They also provide a mechanism for business women to help other business women.”
