Ooredoo sponsors How Women Work Conference for the third year

Ooredoo has today announced it will continue its collaboration with How Women Work (HWW) as a Strategic Partner of The Annual How Women Work Conference for the third year running.

The Annual How Women Work Conference empowers women in Qatar both personally and professionally, and the seventh edition of The Annual How Women Work Conference will be held from March 8-9, 2016 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel Doha, to coincide with International Women’s Day, which is celebrated annually worldwide on March 8. Ooredoo has been the Strategic Partner of How Women Work since 2014, and aims to champion women across Doha as part of the company’s commitment to enrich people’s lives and support the human development pillar of the Qatar National Vision 2030.

Director of Community and Public Relations, Ooredoo, Fatima Sultan Al Kuwari, added that: “Empowering women in Qatar is one of our main areas of CSR focus and by creating an open dialogue at events such as these, we can help educate and empower women about the opportunities available to them. This strategic partnership with How Women Work, alongside our own initiatives, is a key element in reaching Qatar’s 2030 National Vision.”

Founder of HWW, CarolinZeitler, said: “Ooredoo has been a great Strategic Partner for the past two years and we are happy to be working together for a third term. Ooredoo’s commitment to developing their employees as well as attracting and retaining female talent makes them an ideal partner for us. Our shared goals and values make this partnership meaningful and enable both organisations to jointly contribute to the growth and development of the women’s community.” 

This event will mark the last conference under the leadership of HWW founder CarolinZeitler, who will be handing the brand over to its new owner during the conference. The Annual How Women Work Conference is an interactive, inspiring and empowering two-day event, where attendees have the opportunity to attend various workshops and presentations that encourage interaction, inspire exploration and empower continuous growth both on the personal and professional level, as attendees ultimately define and create their own success. This year’s conference is centered on the theme, Connecting the Dots.

In addition to an annual conference, HWW has a series of ongoing learning and development events that run year round, including ‘How Women FIND Work’ and ‘How Women Thrive Amongst Men’,as well as the monthly workshop series ‘Equipped to Succeed’, the Mastermind and Soul Sisters groups and the CSR book project ‘How Women Succeed’.Currently, the HWW community includes leaders, employees, executives, business owners, entrepreneurs, graduates and students, as well as women who are looking to re-enter the workforce.

The HWW Community was founded by Carolin Zeitler in 2009 due to her unwavering passion and dedication to empower women to grow and succeed, to reach hearts and minds, as well as to break down barriers and promote understanding across cultures and genders. In doing so, Carolin was able to bring together women with aspirations and ambitions to share their knowledge, ideas and ambitions, ultimately enabling them to find sustainable ways to succeed.
