NETWORK Ireland Limerick, the forum for women in business, has elected Emma Wilson as President for 2022.
Head of Marketing at Keeper Solutions, she was presented with the chain of office by outgoing president Caragh O’Shea this week.
Statin that Network Ireland Limerick had played a central role in her professional and personal development, Ms Wilson said she was looking forward to building on the solid foundation Network Ireland Limerick has formed to support the development of women both professionally and personally.
“If anything, the past two years have taught us that a sense of community and belonging is essential for our wellbeing and growth. I aim to provide engaging speaking events that will teach and inspire women and social events to help people connect and build new relationships and nurture existing ones. It’s difficult to tell how this year will go but I am hopeful that we will return to in-person meetings later this year,” she added.
As President of the Network Ireland Limerick, she will represent the Limerick branch at National Executive meetings, and overseeing the smooth running of monthly events locally. It will be an action-packed year for the network as Ms Wilson also plans to introduce additional events and activities so that members further expand their network and forge deeper connections with one another.
“In 2022, with progress in vaccinations, more knowledge about Covid- 19, I think society will learn to operate in the ‘new normal’. With that, I think it’s important for people to reconnect in-person.
“Until it’s safe to do so, I’m planning interactive virtual events and educational workshops — events where our members can have fun while also coming away from the screen feeling motivated and inspired. As restrictions evolve, we will ensure as many in-person networking events as possible. These will allow members to reconnect and immerse themselves in the true power of the network,” Ms Wilson explained.
Karen Brosnahan, Business Manager for Shannon Region Conference and Sports Bureau will serve as Vice President for the coming year.
