ABOUT MAUREEN

Maureen Simon blends 25 years of experience in international business consulting and community development, including serving to mediate political conflict in Northern Ireland and Eastern Europe. As an acclaimed consultant, teacher, and speaker conducting keynotes, workshops, and retreats around the world, she bases her work on the strong belief that our world cultures now need, more than ever before, for women to step into their rightful power and leadership roles. Her work supports cultural transformation as it makes a strong business case on the benefits of women leading at the top of organisations. With a focus on women’s empowerment and gender balance, Maureen supports bridging understanding between men and women in organizations, who are ready and eager to create cultures that encourage the development of women leaders. She believes that advanced skill development in the areas of communication, confidence building, and leadership and career development are all essential for women in business to fully contribute.
