In collaboration with Qatari Businesswomen Forum, the British Council Qatar ran in January 09 its first Springboard women’s self development programme with 25 candidates coming from different organisations and backgrounds throughout Qatar.
‘Having leaded a busy life for many years, I never had the time to think of what I actually like, want or need. For me Springboard opportunity had come just at the right time. However, like many others, I had my doubts that I will be able to implement those intentions in my real life. This doubt disappeared at the first hour! I learnt how important to connect with others, share, discuss and find the courage to express myself. I never lacked having those noble thoughts, but spring board taught me how to actually implement them in my life and make them part of my existence. All the principles made true common sense, and I was amazed that nothing was new however; we all need a gentle reminder every now and then to keep us on the right track with humanity.’ Elena Hatem
‘I benefited a lot from attending this programme. I gained many skills that allowed me to boost my self confidence and behave more assertively both professionally and personally.’ Mayadah, Qatar National Bank
