2011 May 05 Building Bridges, Connecting Women: The 2011 Women in Business Leadership Awards

On May 12 the most powerful women in Beijing will gather to celebrate the accomplishments in their community with a day of presentations, networking, champagne, and an awards ceremony celebrating outstanding women entrepreneurs, young achievers, business women, and more.
This not-to-be-missed networking opportunity takes place Thursday, May 12, 2011 from 2pm-9.30pm at the Beijing Marriott Hotel City Wall. The event will begin with an early afternoon reception, followed by two informative and inspiring presentations on how women can develop their potential by finding “super heroes,” role models that inspire them, followed by a presentation on how companies can groom future women leaders.

Last Chance to Buy Chi Fan for Charity Tickets!

Foodies and do-gooders unite – tonight’s the night you’ve all been waiting for. The third annual Chi Fan for Charity dinner will kick off citywide at 7.30pm, with the Hatsune after-party to follow at 10pm.
As expected, there is only a limited quantity of tickets left for both events. Just two days ago there were twice as many, so the few that are left will also probably be snatched up fast:
Chi Fan With Alan Wong, Kristen Lum and Stacey Lee Mitchell

The event on everyone’s lips still has seats left for purchase, though perhaps not for long. Chi Fan for Charity 2011 held its press party last night at the Westin Chaoyang’s Touch Bar to bring together the restaurateurs, media, table hosts and 2011 beneficiaries. They noted that they were not far from reaching their target goal of RMB 300,000, and that there remains a range of prices (from RMB 500 to 1000) and cuisines (from Spanish tapas at Carmen to Indian at Punjabi) to choose from.
If you’re still on the fence, we’ll let the CFFC table hosts and organizers do the talking. (See our earlier post for founder Michael Crain’s responses.)
Win a Chance to Transform your Life
Starting this Wednesday, Tracy Driscoll of Aspire Coaching will host a six week course designed to help you discover your life’s ambition, and to realize it. According to Driscoll, many of us have simply learned to cope with life, meaning that we are effectively blocking our own understanding of what makes us happy and fulfilled, and focusing on survival instead. Over the six weeks, Driscoll will help her students get back to basics. She’ll teach them to tune in to what really motivates them, what brings them joy, help them recognize the sources of negative energy in their lives. For the chance to win tickets to the next workshop check out Agenda’s contest online – and quick! The competition ends tomorrow.
