Value We ’ re thrilled that these businesses have seen value in what we offer and have leapt at the chances to network , learn and socialise with Women in Exhibitions . The UK is home to many of the world ’ s most successful and influential exhibition companies who are committed to maintaining cultures of equality and opportunity in their businesses and we ’ re delighted to be a part of that effort .
We also have our wonderful individual members , many of whom are incredibly successful female business owners and entrepreneurs in the world of exhibitions . Running a business is challenging in any circumstance and over the past two years our members have benefitted hugely from our regular off-the-record fireside sessions discussing everything from ‘ standing in your own success ’ and self-PR to the menopause and returning to work post maternity leave to topics such as imposter syndrome and effective negotiation .
These discussions are pressure-free environments to engage with fellow industry professionals facing similar challenges , hear the experiences of peers and often include an expert guest speaker .
In June , our 2022 layered development programme will return for members . Created and curated by The Rego Group , the programme is a series of interconnected sessions designed to support , enhance and develop approaches to leadership . EN
