Women in Leadership

Women in Leadership – ‘Purpose-driven leadership

Leadership:
There are so many ways and styles. Reimagining Leadership is needed NOW more than before. Imagine a world where leaders put purpose and altruistic values over anything else when making decisions. Being guided by their own purpose, helping others discover theirs and connecting it all to the purpose of organisation.

We are honored to welcome 4 such leaders to our “Women in Leadership” panel, organised by the Finnish-Dutch Chamber of Commerce. Join us for this wonderful in-person event. Session with leaders Tamara de Gruyter, Herma van der Wal, Reetta Ilomäki and Kristina Öström will be moderated by Andrea Orsag.

My ultimate goal is to combine these two passions and be a business advisor for companies wanting to expand their business online in a sustainable way.

I’m passionate about helping companies at all stages to unlock their full potential and think on a global scale.

Having both worked in and led large teams, she is eager to share her learnings on how to best navigate career choices.
