About The Athena Network

 

How We Got Here

 

The CEO and Founder of The Athena Network, Jacqueline Rogers, recognised that there was a requirement for women in business that is not currently being fulfilled.  The opportunity to attend a fun, yet focussed, networking lunch, to be trained in networking and business skills and to be coached, mentored and trained in their business and personal development. 

 

Athena Aims

  • Providing opportunities to make strategic connections with professionals in a wide range of industry sectors.

  • Developing members' business skills through a choice of interactive workshops and training courses.

  • Encourage women in business to inspire and support others for greater success.

We aim to put like-minded women together who are passionate about growing and developing their business.  Many of our members also benefit on a personal level from the support and inspiration they get from other members as well as from the organisation.

 

Training and development of our members as well as their business is very important to Athena.  To this end we provide numerous trainings and workshops.  Some are designed to help ladies who are new to networking, whilst we also cater to the needs of the experienced networker!  Every new member to Athena is automatically invited to attend a FREE New Member Training session designed to help each newcomer to get the most from their Athena membership.

 

Whether you are new to business or have been established for a number of years, you will undoubtedly realise how beneficial it is to build relationships with other businesses.  Athena members enjoy the networking lunches and other events, which gives them the opportunity to build these valuable contacts.  Increasing your database of contacts will mean you can instantly put your hands on the right contact to help support you in business, whether this is a supplier or a company you can work with jointly on a project with a client of yours.

 

At the end of the day, one of the main reasons ladies join Athena is to gain new business! Although we are not a referral organisation and don't apply this pressure to our members, business is constantly passing throughout the membership.  So if you're looking for new business plus you want to benefit from the other aims of the organisation, them membership in Athena can certainly help you to achieve your goals.

 

Where We Are Going

 

Developing strategic relationships with experts in the market.  Listening to our members requirements to deliver new and exciting initiatives to ensure that the members come to regard Athena as the premier networking and training organisation for women.

 

Jacqueline Rogers

 

CEO and a Founder of The Athena Network, Jacqueline Rogers gained extensive corporate experience in a broad range of challenging sales, training and consultancy roles with organisations such as KPMG, BAe, Ernst & Young and BT.

 

A nomadic upbringing pathed a passage of destiny for a woman who by her own admission is the “karma chameleon” of business.  Able to rapidly turn her attention and inspirational skills to a myriad of people, professions and situations, Jacqueline Rogers is the mistress of effortless positive change.

 

 With her roots in Lancashire, and as a daughter of an RAF serviceman, it became second nature for her to embrace new cultures, explore exotic lands and fall in step with new ways of living, as she travelled the world in her formative years.

 

Little wonder then that the power of life change and making the most of the moment became a professional way of life for Jacqueline in adulthood.  Naturally drawn, like Picasso to paint, to new  people, and tuning in to what makes them tick, she set her life compass on a path that lead to study with new thinkers and lifestyle gurus.

 

No New Age flake, Jacqueline has sound business credentials. For the best part of her working life she held many varied and successful consultancy, training and sales positions in corporate businesses - working with organisations such as KPMG, BAe, Ernst & Young and BT.  This all adds to her credibility.

 

With a proven track record in sales and marketing she has won president club awards to St Lucia, Grand Cayman and had sole responsibility for setting up the Le Creuset concessions in Germany.

 

Her own life crossroads came when Jacqueline made a choice to leave the corporate world, start her own business and work directly with business owners as a coach, mentor and trainer. She comments, “I didn’t know the colour of my own front door; I would leave for work so early and get home so late.  Work/life balance?  How could I coach what I couldn’t model?”

 

As founder member of Phoenix Potential, Jacqueline has dedicated her post-corporate professional life to Coaching, Training and Mentoring business owners and entrepreneurs.  “It is my passion to help business people achieve their personal and professional potential without struggling and in a way that feels easy yet compelling for the individual,” she explains.

 

Wanting to ensure the best results for her clients Jacqueline extended her portfolio of skills and went on to become a qualified Master Practitioner of NLP, Master Practitioner of Time Line Therapy™, Practitioner of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Practitioner of EmoTrance and  a Master Hypnotist and qualified Life Coach. She adds, “I’ve been fortunate to know, and have been trained by, some of the most inspiring people - esteemed new thinkers in development and leadership who have taught me much about people, processes, and the desire to make things happen.”

 

As a ‘serial womanpreneur’, running several web businesses, Jacqueline has her own bevy of international coaches and mentors to ensure she stays at the cutting edge.  Yet in her time she has been a divorced single parent to two sons Patrick and Ciaran and living in variety of European countries, she knows all too well the pressures modern businesswomen have juggling home and work life too.

 

The Athena Network, which she co-founded in February 2006, marries together all of Jacqueline’s values of networking, inspiring and supporting women to reach their full professional and personal best.

 

“”You know when you’ve reached your potential when you feel life feels effortless, purposeful and full of possibility.  I feel like that about the Athena Network and it is my intention to help many hundreds more unleash their power and still have time to buy shoes!”.
