Developing the Confidence to Ask: Peeplcoach’s Christine Khor

Since the beginning of time women have been socialised and conditioned to “wait to be asked”. We are taught to be patient, to wait to be asked out, to wait to be asked for your hand in marriage and to wait for your promotion. Whilst we are waiting, less qualified but confident people are moving ahead of us whilst we feel unheard, unrecognised, and exhausted.

In this session Christine will share:  What are the fears making us wait and stopping us from asking?  Tools and language to help you to ask for what you without shame or guilt.  Understanding the cost and consequences of not asking for yourself and those around you.
