Talk
According to the speaker, twenty years in the life of any person or body needs celebration and commendation for passing through teen age with its teething problems. That person has become adult and must behave responsibly to bring about the development of oneself and her home. Thus the theme for the day" Power Queens: 20 years of Women's development to enhance productivity in ECG.
She believed that the club was formed to unite all women of ECG to enable us reach what could not be achieved individually or otherwise and be a formidable group to sell and defend the Company.
Unity?!!?
The first question she asked was...do we still have this unity in the true sense amongst women? she continued that we should agree with her that a number of splinter groups have developed within Power Queens over the years due to little misunderstandings, petty jealousies and envy.
We can never empower ourselves let alone enhance the productivity of ECG if we would manage our own affairs this way.
Drawbacks
It is undeniable fact that women themselves are most effective catalysts for their empowerment and change for the better. Unfortunately, there are still certain behaviours that draws us back. They are acts that have caused us to remain in our shells and continue having the old mindset. it prevents us from progressing and widening our horizon.
As queens, we should be assretive and encourage ourselves to take up leadership roloe. Let's endeavour to put timidity behind us and move ahead rubbing shoulders with our male counterparts whatever the task may be.
We should take the bold step towards improving our lot by broadening our scope by attaining and updating our knowledge in everything that concerns us.
