Dear Supporters & Friends,
Your trust in the Project helped Utthan conduct the 1st. training in the series of Financial Management workshops in May 2018.
We began with finalising a Short term plan amongst our team and identified resource person, Mr. Abrar Ali Saiyed who is an Assistant Professor at Ahmedabad University. He has a Ph.D. in Strategy, Entrepreneurship International Business from the reputed Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA), he is the Founder and Mentor: The Heritage Club IIMA and Founder: Association of Muslim Entrepreneurs. His keen interest in social work, supporting entrepreneurship skill building of marginalised communities esp. women brought him in touch with Utthan.
An interesting Agenda with talk, discussion and creative play was weaved together for this workshop experience!
26 bubbling women leaders joined the Workshop to build capacities of Women's Federation leaders on 'Business Orientation'.
In the context of the overall work of their Federations, leaders were facilitated to reflect on their Understanding of Entrepreneurship & business approach to their current individual livelihood or their Federations' business.
The Core learning which emerged was to keep in mind the following points for a Successful Business:
This was followed by an interactive session on lessons learned and need for future support.
Post lunch, the tone was set for a Planning excercise in which each Federation worked on their planning. On field support will be provided to these leaders by Utthan team.
The Skill building will be taken ahead in the next workshop.
We are hopeful to garner more resources on Bonus Day, 18th July 2018. Take <1min to see our new Project Video:
