It was wonderful to meet you all in Los Angeles and to retreat for 2 days at the Hudson Loft, exploring the questions we are most passionate about:

Can we imagine a society, which profoundly respects and honours the more subtle energy within the human nature – deep care, compassion, listening, intuition, connection and our inherent wisdom?

We all know that whether in politics, peace building, business or other areas these qualities have often been associated with weakness or frailty. At FemmeQ we believe that we need to fully integrate these more subtle qualities, which lie at the core of our being in women and men, to restore a balance between intellect and intuition, facts and feelings, reason and realism.

Once balanced with the masculine we produce another intelligence – we call this intelligence FemmeQ.

We know that once we use FemmeQ to create a new level of consciousness we will unleash a new kind of creativity, which is so needed to solve the problems we face today.

If you agree – please feel welcome to join us!

This FemmeQ Summit was the best event I have ever been to. It has truly been life changing.

Our Global Forum of Panelists & Workshop Leaders

Learn from international experts in an intimate environment and in small groups

Meet the women and men who are forging a new frontier across all sectors of society by applying the Feminine Qualities in their field of expertise. These are the women and men who you will listen to, work with and be inspired by.

Scilla Elworthy

Gulalai Ismail

Peace Building

Deep Listening

When we apply the FQ quality of Deep Listening to the transformation of violent conflict, a civil war can be avoided, as Scilla Elworthy witnessed in South Africa--and suicide bombing can be prevented, as Gulalai Ismail discovered in NW Pakistan. We know that including a higher percentage of women negotiating peace agreements produces longer lasting results. Learn how to apply deep listening to de-escalating conflicts in your own life and work from three-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee Dr. Scilla Elworthy and human rights activist Gulalai Ismail.

Karen Lee Downes

Shelley Zalis

Geoff McDonald

Ted Ning

Business and Technology

Compassion

When leaders embrace the quality of compassion to create a culture where the wellbeing of their people is paramount, business prospers. The corporate world has long made the false assumption that more time spent working equates to more productivity and more profits. The relentless pursuit of productivity and profit over employee wellbeing has led to growing rates of depression and burnout among American workers. Join global facilitator Karen Lee Downes, The Female Quotient CEO Shelley Zalis, health and sustainability consultant Ted Ning and Unilever's former Global VP of Human Resources, Geoff McDonald, to learn how to apply compassion and bring heart back to business to implement more humane, purposeful policies that help workers flourish.

Darshita Gillies

Sabra Williams

Sarah Eagle Heart

Governance & Politics

Inclusivity

When we apply the FQ quality of inclusivity to governance and policy making, we get tangible results - we achieve a more equitable culture for the benefit of all, as in Angela Merkel’s refugee policy resulting in a million refugees integrated into German society. In 2004, Rwanda became the first country to elect more than 50% female members of parliament, where they immediately banished archaic patriarchal laws preventing women from owning land and passed a monumental bill to prevent gender-based violence. Join Sarah Eagle Heart, an executive focused on education and advocacy on behalf of Indigenous peoples, organizational leadership facilitator Darshita Gillies and restorative justice advocate Sabra Williams to discover how to apply inclusivity to ensure that the voiceless have a say in the direction of society.

Alexandra Feldner

Kathleen Man Gyllenhaal

Stephen Gyllenhaal

Kathy Eldon

FILM, ART & MEDIA

Integrity

Extreme, graphic violence in films and video games perpetuates the acceptance of physical and emotional abuse in our societies. When we apply the FQ quality of Integrity we see films that evoke a more humane and interconnected future. This in turn can inspire us to take action in our communities. Join filmmakers Kathleen Man Gyllenhaal and Stephen Gyllenhaal, Kathy Eldon and FemmeQ Founder Alexandra Feldner to discuss the profound impact Integrity can have in the stories we create on-screen--and in turn the stories we create in the world.

MILLENNIALS for the NEW WORLD

Protection

Millennials now make up one third of the US workforce. They yearn to work for businesses who are concerned about the impact they have on the world. They want to be treated fairly and respectfully, they seek to form positive connections with colleagues and feel proud of what they do. Such workplaces exhibit strong feminine qualities and will be the corporations that will prosper in the future. Join Lauren Rinkey, Adjunct Professor at USC Marshall School of Business, Ebony Haley, Program Director REVOLT Music Conference, Rebecca Day, Masters in Int. Dev. & Business Consultant, Ione Butler, Actress & Founder of UPLIFTINGcontent.com

Robert Schwenkler

Suzanne Anderson

HommeQ & FemmeQ

Balancing the masculine with the feminine

The ways we currently approach issues such as climate change, social inclusion, mental health and conflict, to just name a few, are stuck in old-world patriarchal thinking. Understanding the importance of feminine qualities is critical if we are to move away from this mindset to change the destructive path we are on. But what will it take for us—-especially men-- to overcome the stigma of embracing and applying feminine intelligence? And how can we incorporate productive masculine qualities while still being authentic to our purpose as changemakers? Join Suzanne Anderson who is a scholar and researcher in the fields of the Deep Feminine Wisdom, men's leadership facilitator Robert Schwenkler, multimedia storyteller Ian MacKenzie and FemmeQ Founder Alexandra Feldner as we explore the many ways to balance the masculine and feminine wisdom in our hearts and in the world.
