Today’s world needs the caring and responsible leadership skills that parenthood unlocks. Mothers are leaders.
Welcome to the first leadership development community for Mothers.
Our mission is to be a source of inspiration, recognition and support for mothers to dream more, to learn more and to do more for the world by stepping into a leadership role.
There are 2 billion mothers in the world and many of them have to sacrifice their own dreams and personal ambitions after having children. While we admire the beauty of self-sacrifice what we forget is the price we pay as a society and as a planet when generations after generations of women hold back on their leadership ambitions upon having children.
Steliana van de Rijt-Economu is a leadership consultant who has researched the impact of parenting on women’s leadership and personal effectiveness. She has spoken to hundreds of mothers, some of them employed, some working at home and she selected twenty life stories to include in her book ‘Mothers as Leaders’. These are real life stories of women from all the parts of the world from The Netherlands, UK, Norway, and all the way to China, Mongolia, India and Nigeria.
Nature hasn’t created a single relationship as powerful and naturally strong as the one between a mother and her child. From giving life, carrying for, nurturing and raising children, up to the time the young ones eventually fly the nest, mothers are often the ones who guide and keep families and communities together.
