Glendale, AZ (PRWEB) November 19, 2008
Project Artemis began in 2006 at the Thunderbird School of Global Management in Glendale, Arizona. It is an educational program specifically designed to empower women entrepreneurs from Afghanistan, giving them the tools to build successful businesses and pass on their success to others. The latest class of 14 graduated on October 24 after two weeks of classes, seminars and workshops on every aspect of owning and running a business.
As part of this special program, plastic surgery specialist Dr. Heidi Regenass co-hosted and participated in one of the many educational workshops. Dr. Heidi along with renowned make-up artist, Zethina, shared their personal experiences as women business owners, and in particular the value of partnering, networking and public relations.
As a plastic surgeon, Phoenix (http://www. drheidi. com/), Arizona, and business woman, Dr. Regenass understands the importance of networking and forming lasting partnerships as she has done with Zethina and her skin care salon. This was one of the lessons the Afghani women took with them and will apply to the operations of their businesses.
"Seeing the excitement on their faces as they envisioned ways to use our information was very rewarding," Dr. Regenass said. "I am thrilled that I could contribute in some small way to the success of my fellow business women on a global level."
Dr. Regenass is one of just a few women who perform plastic surgery in Phoenix (http://www. drheidi. com/), and she knows the power of connecting with fellow business women in the area to promote and grow her business. Her relationship with make-up artist, Zethina, is one such partnership. They consistently refer clients to each other and join together on projects such as Project Artemis to promote and empower other women in business.
Along with promoting partnerships, Dr. Regenass and Zethina also illustrated how essential marketing and public relations are to growing a business. The Afghan business women took away key, easy to implement techniques that they can use to grow their businesses.
The success of the day was not just the business information that was passed on, but also the camaraderie and fun the women experienced. With the venue being a spa, make-up tips and skin care products were given as well as relaxing massages and manicures.
Dr. Heidi Regenass, is a board certified plastic surgeon, through her private practice she performs plastic surgery in Phoenix (http://www. drheidi. com/), Arizona.
