On 11th March 2013, Club L Benelux - in cooperation with WIL - is hosting a high-level dinner on the “Women and Power” study carried out by WIL member Viviane de Beaufort, Professor in European and Comparative Law at ESSEC Business School, and founder of the "Women Be European Board Ready" program.

Club L Benelux, which is a network of over 200 high-level women from the world of politics, business, arts and media, presided over by Evelyn Gessler, regularly organizes networking events with the aim to support women to find new opportunities and reach top leadership levels.

The dinner will take place at 7.30pm at Cercle Gaulois, 5 rue de la Loi, 1000 Brussels, and several members of the European Commission as well as WIL Emerging Leaders are registered to participate in debating the results of this insightful study.

The “Women and Power” study, authored by Viviane de Beaufort, is based on a series of interviews with women leaders and executives and explores the different dimensions of the relationship between women and power, such as cultural conditioning, career factors and perception of quotas, thus encouraging reflection on contemporary models of governance and leadership.

After the dynamic feedback meeting co-organized by AmCham France, and a session within the context of the Women’s Forum in Deauville, this will be the third in a series of events aimed at discussing the study’s results.
