Isnt it just fantastic the way we judge one another. I have had a lot to do with Judging over the last week. I was privilged enough to be asked to judge a business competition for Young Enterprise South West this week at Bristol Airport. The young people had worked really hard and had some great ideas that I could well see turning in to profits so it was quite difficult to choose; I managed it with my partner from Rolls Royce.
I saw a programme about mothers who leave thier children and got really cross that some sanctimonious mother was judging others who had to work or had other priorities. It made me so cross that this woman was so blinkered in her view of life that she could not see others ideas. My belief is in the power of the individual. One of the mothers had been through a divorce and was seeing her children on a part time basis yet she was still considered to have abandoned then. Lummey!
We had our first multi network meeting about Women’s Enterprise day and our area celebration. One of our goals is to appoint 5 fantastic women role models to bring enterprise to communities who may not get to engage. I cant wait to see who gets picked and I sincerely hope they are human beings who have had to make unpopular choices – those and how we deal with them are what should be celebrated – not one way for all!
