ABOUT

We aim to:

• foster collaboration among women entrepreneurs
  
• create a more supportive and inclusive environment
  
• close the gender gap in economic opportunities and
  
• promote gender equality.
  

Our program, "The Art of Collaboration," offers 2 barcamps as an opportunity to network locally and exchange knowledge on the best tools and practices for collaboration. We then take this content to form a 12-week online course accessible to women entrepreneurs worldwide.

WHY

Our goal is to foster a supportive community of collaborative women entrepreneurs!

We achieve this by facilitating knowledge exchange in communities local to the facilitators.

Women have long learned and performed better as part of a group, and studies show that women thrive when surrounded and supported by other women. A Harvard Business Review study found that adding more women to a group increased overall collective intelligence, and women score much higher on social sensitivity tests than men. When working in groups, women are more collaborative, which ultimately leads to more success for both women and their companies. Companies with more women in leadership and employment experience sustained profit growth and higher levels of innovation. Women who interact with a strong female network of peers on a regular basis will experience a higher level of satisfaction and success than those who do not.

Collaboration empowers women! It enhances their efficiency, creativity, motivation, morale, learning, and overall success. Women working in groups raise the collective intelligence and help dispel traditional stereotypes. Together, women can achieve greatness, remove obstacles and pave the way for future female entrepreneurs.

Join us in building valuable relationships with like-minded women for personal, social and business growth!

A barcamp is an open, participant-driven experience where attendees collaboratively create the agenda and content, fostering discussions, knowledge sharing and networking.

THANK YOU TO OUR COLLABORATORS and CO-AUTHORS!

Our collaborators engaged in small teams to co-create content and facilitate sessions, embodying the ethos of collaborative learning and teaching. Together, they designed and refined course materials, ensuring that each session was informative and engaging. Additionally, our collaborators took turns leading sessions, applying their expertise to guide fellow learners through interactive activities and discussions. This hands-on approach not only enriched the learning experience but also demonstrated the effectiveness of collaborative teamwork in creating meaningful educational outcomes. By working together in both content development and facilitation, our collaborators embraced the spirit of collective effort and shared responsibility, contributing to a dynamic and inclusive learning environment.

WHO ARE WE?

Tina Lymberis, Evolving Cycles, Greece

Tina brings her passion and many years of experience in facilitating groups around the topics of communication, collaboration and earth regeneration. These topics form the pillars of the community building methodology that she uses. More specifically, she conveys the essence of Permaculture [Personal, Social and Land-based], Compassionate Communication [NCV by Marshall Rosenberg], Sociocratic Facilitation, the Art of Hosting, the Transition Movement and Agile Learning. She has distilled technical information and fused it with primitive social bonding and artistic expression (singing, dancing and playing) to create a unique, holistic formula for guiding our New Earth Leaders along their personal, social, artistic and environmental evolution.
