🇹🇭 Last Wednesday Inspiring Women in Hospitalityorganised the first Inspire Networking event in Bangkok sponsored by Six Senses at the Kimpton Maa-Lai
❤️ It was a real pleasure to collaborate and co-host this event with Jael. The topic we chose was "Dare to Ask" as this is an area that many women still struggle with when it comes to their careers.
We started with apanel discussion where we were joined by Khun Mook, Khun Orn and Patrick Both.
On the panel we answered these following three questions:
⛰️ What is the boldest ask you have ever made in your career?
⛰️ How have you supported others in making bold asks in the workplace?
⛰️ How do culture or gender or generation influence our ability to ask?
🧐 First time I invited a man to be on the panel, not only to offer the male perspective but he also served as our host of the event as GM of the Kimpton. A big thank you to the entire team at the Kimpton for taking such good care of us.
💫 This was followed by my signature 'conversation circles' where all the attendees got involved in the discussions inspired by the panel discussions. These circles are important to me because I want
everyone to engage, learn and be inspired by others in the room.
🤩 I was so inspired by everyone that I had the chance to interact with and I hope this is only the beginning in our mission for gender balance across hospitality, real estate and travel.
❤️ I also wanted to give a shout out to Karla whowelcomed to the event with her inspiring speech to dare to believe in ourselves.
👉 There is still more to be done and I will not stop on my mission of gender balance. For those who want to follow along on my journey, sign up to my newsletter to find out how you can get involved and
support the cause.
