SUMMARY:Spiritual Intelligence Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Since the beginning of time\, humans have been searching for answers. \nHow did we get here? \nWhat is our purpose? \nWhat is the true meaning of life? \nSpiritual Intelligence is the ability to ask deeper questions about our existence and our purpose\, and recognise the integrated relationship between ourselves and the world in which we live. \nIt means knowing that we are a significant part of a purposeful unfolding of life in our universe.

SUMMARY:Masterclass: Navigating the new normal of Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion 2022
DESCRIPTION:There have been a lot of important events in the world of D&I in recent years including the #MeToo movement\, increasing sexual harassment claims\, the Respect@Work report\, and Grace Tame winning Australian of the Year in 2021. One of the key barriers to progressing gender equality is that people feel uncomfortable discussing the topic and themes in the workplace. This is due to a number of reasons including the complexity of the subject\, fear of upsetting people and fear of saying the wrong thing. In this quickly changing DEI landscape it is vital that all voices are heard and we have balanced conversations. \nThis masterclass will open the door for men and women to step through together with confidence into this new world. We need to acknowledge that there is fear and address the emotions so that we can get comfortable with the new normal of DEI. It doesn’t have to be a perilous journey. This masterclass will help attendees demystify the language and gain a better understanding of the important topics. Let’s keep it simple and focus on what matters most in what it is really going to take to advance gender equality. \nBrought to you by Women in Technology WA (WiTWA)\, this masterclass will open the door for men and women to step through with confidence into this new world. We need to acknowledge that there is fear and we address the emotions so that we can get comfortable with the new normal of DEI. It doesn’t have to be a perilous journey.

SUMMARY:FKUP Nights Perth X Bloom X WASEC: Youth Special
DESCRIPTION:A global movement and series of events where stories of failure are shared. Each month\, at events around the world\, we get three or four people to face a room full of strangers to share their own fuckup. Stories of businesses that go bust\, partner deals that fall out\, products that have to be recalled\, we tell it all.\n\nWhy Fkup Nights? Because with #peakstartup\, a 90% failure rate\, and all the talk of motivation and positivity\, there’s something missing.. talking about failure\, and learning from sharing stories of failure! Free your failures\, Perth will thank you! \nHOW IS IT DONE? \nIn every Fkup Night 3 speakers tell their failure story explaining: \nWhat was the project? \nWhat went wrong? \nWhat did they learn? \nWhat would they do differently? \nJoin Bloom\, WASEC and Fkup Nights Perth for a special youth focused Fkup Night at Bloom Curtin. Get in quick before tickets sell out! \nEach speaker tells their story in 10 images followed by Q&A. At the end of the speakers’ stories\, attendees are welcome to stick around and network over drinks. Previous Fkup Night speakers have varied from social entrepreneurs\, tech founders\, and even a doctor who a few years ago opened an adult shop that went broke. Just so you get an idea\, Fkup Nights is something between a party and a casual business conference 🙂 \nAll proceeds from the night go to a local Social Enterprise. This event supports Hello Initiative.

SUMMARY:Bringing Diversity of Thinking to Transformation Leadership Teams
DESCRIPTION:On 30th May\, Digital Transformation Perth will host an extra special event for our local business and technology community. We’ll be taking over Riff’s Town Hall with a packed evening of conversations from not one\, but two panels. \nThese panels will feature not only transformational leaders from Perth\, but also a special guest who will be joining us virtually from Norway: Whynde Kuehn\, Founder and Managing Director of S2E Transformation. \nIn this night of two halves (bridged by our usual pause for drinks\, food\, and networking)\, our first panel will tackle the question of why we want to drive diversity in transformational leadership. \nWith evolving methodologies\, no cookie-cutter approach for transformational leadership\, and no single greatest role model to emulate\, this is an area deserving of our attention. We need leaders who bring different perspectives and practical approaches. We can achieve this by supporting diversity of thinking\, backgrounds\, experience\, and capabilities. But how do we inspire the growth and inclusion of leaders who will bring this diversity? \nOur second panel will introduce us to one example of how we can support diversity in our leadership. We are excited to share that this session will mark Australia’s public launch of global initiative Women in Architecture (WIA). \nWIA was created to accelerate the pathway for women in architecture to amplify the impact of the discipline worldwide. WIA is a community based on a spirit of personal growth\, open exchange\, mutual trust\, and helping each other. \nThis promises to be a dynamic and inspiring event\, so we hope to see many familiar and new faces alike on 30th May!

SUMMARY:WA Social Enterprises: Certify as a business for good!
DESCRIPTION:The world has changed. So has business. Now is the time to get recognised as a certified social enterprise. \nAlmost 500 Australian social enterprises have chosen certification – WA is a very small portion of those certified. Are we ready to join the community of game changers? \nWASEC invites you to join us and Social Traders to learn about what certification provides. Social Traders is Australia’s only independent verification of social enterprise status. Social Traders work with social enterprises across all impact models\, legal types and all stages of social enterprise development including start-ups. \nIn this online workshop delivered by the WA Social Enterprise Council and Social Traders\, you’ll get: \n\nInsight into the social enterprise model and why its catching on globally.\nHow certification supports your business to grow.\nAn introduction to our community of gamechangers and membership offer.\nHow certification supports access to social procurement opportunities.\nEverything needed to get started and receive your certification activation kit.\n\n——— \nA message from Social Traders CEO\, Tara Anderson: \nAt a time when businesses are grappling with the challenge of creating purpose beyond profit\, social enterprises have been doing it for decades. And it’s time the whole economy learnt from them and shifted in that direction. \nCertification is your key to being recognised as a social enterprise – by the sector\, by funders\, by big business and by government. \nThe number of certified social enterprises is growing by an average of 29% every year. We want all social enterprises to be certified so they can be recognised\, win new contracts\, access capacity building support and secure grant funding or social investment. 79% of certified social enterprises have increased their revenue between certification periods. \nMy ask – stand up and be proud of who we are\, by getting certified \nLet’s be unwavering in making our identity as social enterprises known. Let’s clearly state who we are\, so we can tell the country why we matter. Because if we harness our collective energy\, everything is possible. \nJoin us at the forefront of the shift to business for good. \nFor any questions on the event or to connect with WASEC please email hello@wasec.org. \nFor questions regarding certification contact certification@socialtraders.com.au
