Wisdom of Wombats: Empowering Female Entrepreneurs
Welcome to Wisdom of Wombats: A Global Community for Female Entrepreneurs!
Did you know the collective noun for a group of wombats is a wisdom? How fitting! Just like these clever and resilient creatures, women in the entrepreneurial world can thrive by sharing wisdom and experiences. This event aims to bridge that gap by creating a space where wisdom flows freely and meaningful connections grow.
This will be our 12th Wisdom of Wombats session. These gatherings are small, real, and full of meaningful conversation.
Session Topic: Entrepreneurial Resilience & Motivation: How to Stay the Course!
Guest Speaker: Ulrike Baumöl- Professor and Senior Lecturer for Organizational Transformation, University of St Gallen
Session Description:
Building and sustaining a business requires more strategy and ambition — it demands resilience, adaptability, and the ability to remain motivated through uncertainty, setbacks, and constant change. For many female entrepreneurs, the journey also involves navigating unique challenges such as limited access to funding, balancing multiple roles, overcoming societal expectations, building credibility in male-dominated spaces, and managing the emotional demands of leadership.
This session explores what it truly means to stay the course as a woman in entrepreneurship.
Participants will gain insights into:
Developing a resilient mindset.
Maintaining motivation during difficult seasons.
Making confident decisions amid uncertainty.
Transforming challenges into opportunities for growth and innovation.
Drawing from the intersection of business transformation, intelligent systems, and organizational leadership, this conversation will provide practical perspectives on how female entrepreneurs can strengthen their leadership capacity, remain purpose-driven, and build sustainable businesses in an evolving global landscape.
Whether you are starting out, scaling your business, or navigating moments of transition, this session will equip you with valuable tools and inspiration to continue moving forward with confidence and intention.
