Ahhh … we very rarely think of the word fulfilled … seems a bit old-fashioned, and yet, it has good meaning. In dictionary terms, to be fulfilled is to be able
(1) to perform – as in to do the work you want,
(2) to realize – as in to make things happen and have an impact,
(3) to satisfy – as in the organization’s goals, and your personal goals, and
(4) to develop the full potential of – as in feeling like work is bringing out our best.
So an old-fashioned word, with a multifaceted, relevant meaning – which aligns almost perfectly with the research on why women leave or stay at work.
This program is about keeping you fulfilled at work. It’s about creating the sense and support of “staying power” that will both sustain and accelerate your career. It’s about working with other women, to support each other, and to find challenge, satisfaction and fulfillment. It’s about PoweringUP – to achieve results for our organizations and ourselves.
