Ambitions is an initiative for women. We want to provide you with the support and tools you need to maintain, reach for and achieve your ambitions.
Ambitions works both with women in the course of their career, professionals, and with students* because we believe that business culture should be made familiar to women as early as possible.
Ambitions is a project of Donatienne Brasseur's Brucelle Consulting.
Donatienne (donna-see-enn) Brasseur launched Ambitions early 2014 to host all the projects she had in mind around gender equality. Middle and long-term project aim at making the shift toward gender equality and target mixed groups, politics and public opinion. Short-term projects, in a time where our culture still does not provide a women-friendly environment, aim at helping women maintain, reach for and achieve their ambitions.
The name Ambitions was chosen exactly because ambitions is still such a difficult word for women to own and to brandish.
The most visible Ambitions project is training* and coaching. Ambitions' pedagogy is essentially behavioural. The programes are designed to enable empowerment, self-confidence and leadership towards realising your ambitions. Get to know yourself, your strengths, your drivers but also your barriers, your fears. A lot of practice is build into the courses, exercises designed to create awareness, to practice new behaviours and to learn how to gather new resources. We also want you to learn about society and business immediately when you need it, not after 10-15-20 years like so many of us did. This transfer of knowledge is done by the trainer but also by role models. Several experienced women come and spend a few hours and share and answer any question you may have.
Other Ambitions projects involve policy making, strategy, think tanking and the public visualisation of gender equality.
