On 10 September 2009 Rotterdam School of Management (RSM) hosted the event: “Female Entrepreneurs – The Saviours Of Our Economy?” in which three very experienced Dutch women shared their experiences on managing their business.

This event was the second organised by the female members of the RSM OneMBA Class of 2010 and on this occasion in cooperation with the European Professional Women’s Network (EPWN) and the School itself, hosted on the RSM campus.

Few things can boost your reputation more effectively than publishing a book. And in these tough times, having a book to sell can also create you a nice passive income stream. This workshop will let you find out once and for all whether you have a book in you, what sells, where to find your wow factor and the best ways to make the most money in the least time with the least effort.

This workshop is offered to you by Jo Parfitt, author of 26 books, publisher, journalist and editor. Since 2002 she has helped more than 50 budding authors get into print. Some of them made it to Amazon bestseller status. To find out more about Jo go to www.joparfitt.com and pick up her free report ’50 Steps to a Book in Your Hand.’
