### **This is not a public event.** On April 5, we’re gathering a **small, curated circle** of entrepreneurs, founders, and professionals in Dubai. No mass invites. No open access. No random crowd. **Why people come** Because most networking events don’t work. Too loud. Too superficial. Too many people who shouldn’t be in the room. We do it differently. **What happens here** No pitches. No сцен. No forced conversations. Only a carefully selected group where connections happen naturally — through presence, not performance. **Chess & backgammon?** Just an excuse. The real value is the room. And who is sitting across from you. **Event details** 📅 April 5 🕖 19:00–22:00 📍 Dubai (location shared after confirmation) 💎 Limited capacity 🔒 Approval required **Contribution** 💎 **100 AED — charitable contribution** This is not a ticket. It’s a filter. It ensures the right people in the room. **Important** We do not aim for quantity. We protect the quality of the circle. Once the list is full — registration closes. **If you feel this is for you — apply now.** **If you hesitate — it’s probably not.**

Recent research from World Economic Forum highlights that employers value communication, leadership and EQ along with Technical Skills , now you know why Toastmaster is relevant for you. Soft skills aren’t just “nice extras”—they’re what help you actually succeed in today’s fast-moving, hybrid, and sometimes messy workplace. Think about it: * Can you explain a complicated idea in a way that actually makes sense to someone outside your field? * Can you listen and work well with others, even when things feel stressful? * Can you manage your time, emotions, and energy when everything seems due at once? These skills don’t just help you get by—they help you grow and stand out. While you can pick up a new tool or software pretty quickly, things like emotional awareness, communication, and resolving conflict take real practice over time. That’s why good employers look beyond resumes filled with technical terms. They want people who can adapt, connect, and lead—no matter their role or level of experience

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional
