A global learning and leading community for women who want to transform outdated systems of thought and action
GRACEFULLY - POWERFULLY - UNAPOLOGETICALLY SO
Women Agents Of Change is a global, online learning community intent on transforming the status quo, and doing it with a sense of personal ease and inclusivity.
It is not a war, it is not a fight, but it is a matter of evolution.
What are you ready to transform for the better?
Our aspiration is to empower 100,000+ women to bring forth individual and collective change to the status quo of their contexts with relative ease, practical support and lasting impact.
Knowledge + Practice
Online Learning “Practicals”
We call our online learning offerings ‘practicals’ because we know that transformation only occurs when you are given the time to test new knowledge or mindsets in your day-to-day through practice and reflection.
Change Literacy
Our Change Resources Library
Free knowledge, tools, and referrals to other offerings that you can access a you need them. Our library is part of our commitment to democratizing access to the change enabling information that makes a difference.
Inclusive Support
Globally Connected Community
The WAOC Community of alumnae and friends is a way to connect with other women from around the globe who are committed to their own individual growth and the collective leadership success of women and girls.
“Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good. What is needed for dramatic change is an accumulation of acts, adding, adding to, adding more, continuing. We know that it does not take everyone on Earth to bring justice and peace, but only a small, determined group who will not give up during the first, second, or hundredth gale.
One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul. Soul on deck shines like gold in dark times. The light of the soul throws sparks, can send up flares, builds signal fires, causes proper matters to catch fire. To display the lantern of soul in shadowy times like these — to be fierce and to show mercy toward others; both are acts of immense bravery and greatest necessity. Struggling souls catch light from other souls who are fully lit and willing to show it. If you would help to calm the tumult, this is one of the strongest things you can do.
There will always be times when you feel discouraged. I too have felt despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it. I will not entertain it. It is not allowed to eat from my plate. [...]
In that spirit, I hope you will write this on your wall: When a great ship is in harbor and moored, it is safe, there can be no doubt. But that is not what great ships are built for.
