Women from all over Australia have been involved with this program since it went national in October 2008. Amazing stories and incredible successes have been achieved and below are just some of the testimonials from women who have completed a WMF Program.
‘The Women moving forward program confirmed that I was on the right path with the choices I was making in both my life and my career. It gave me a direction and purpose to aim higher and be more, through applying myself and committing to the modules. The workbook is a reusable resource that can be applied as a reference guide and will provide a backdrop to my decision making when I need affirmation within myself. I have met a group of motivated and dynamic women who all share the same thought…….challenge yourself’’. Cushla Reddington, QLD.
‘This course has helped me identify areas where I am strong and highlighted those areas where I am challenged – yet given me a secure guide as to how to grow stronger in those areas without hiding from my weaknesses. I know it is just the start of the journey.’ Karen Doran QLD
‘Thanks for the great job you do running this program I have enjoyed each module, although we are a small family run business I have found it very beneficial. After each weeks teleconference I come away with more ideas and lots of excitement about our business and changes and ideas which I want to implement’. Felicity from QLD.
‘Thank you very much for my certificate I am very proud of it and have put it up on my wall at work to remind me to "prepare prepare prepare!!!!" and that "everything I touch turns to GOLD!!!' Nicole from Melbourne
‘…I just wanted to let you know that I have become a different person since commencing the WMF. Everyday I feel more confident and in control of my daily tasks and I have achieved some great successes in the last 8 weeks. ‘I had no idea that I could be the person that I have turned into.’ Michelle from Sydney
‘…I was lucky enough to have a manager who could see the advantage of investing money in improving me as an employee AND as a person…’ I felt that there were various modules which were 'common sense'. Some I agreed with some I did not. Some I found to be incredibly confronting though I came out the other side with a better understanding of myself and my interactions with my fellow workers. ..’This course has given me the tools to stop and think about my actions and interactions with others…’thanks to Melinda and Maureen for making the course a thoroughly enjoyable (though very challenging for me) experience.’ Kris from Cairns
‘I love the T&L industry but for some reason when I would say my career goal it always came out hollow. That was until I started the program and within the first few weeks I realised I could combine my career goals with my personal beliefs. Now I feel a sense of inner harmony and self confidence.” Cas from Melbourne
‘From my perspective the program was very easy, there was little paperwork… However, the results were noticeable. Karen gained in self confidence became more proactive at problem solving and our lines of communication improved. I was really chuffed when she asked me to be her mentor. As an employer the course has given me a better relationship with an employee, better communication and a more productive staff member who is engaged, more satisfied and happier within herself. And it shows.’ Ian an Employer
