Welcome to our Community

Welcome to the WSC Advice Exchange! This is a place to ask questions, get advice and engage with students, alumni, our facilitators or anyone with an opinion on living a brilliant life.

As a member of the Advice Exchange, you'll have access to dazzling, like-minded women, all of whom have views on everything to do with living brilliantly.

The Advice Exchange is a place to find advice, yes, but to also meet other women, hear about their lives, their dreams and aspirations and the plans they have to achieve them.

The Exchange is a group of dazzling women, all with the passion and the wisdom to live a brilliant life, who are deeply passionate about transformation ideas and about interacting with one another.

In the Exchange

The Advice Exchange serves to deepen the relationship with WSC and the women of the world but it's also a vehicle to take WSC's concepts out into that world.

Seek advice, research, debate, connect, support and develop. The concepts and connections you make here with women who have similar, but quite diverse, objectives, will be with you forever.

In the Exchange, you can:

	Find Advice: You'll find advice on everything about living a brilliant life. Everything from the diffucult to the fun can be discussed and answered. In short form or essay style, you can throw out a problem to the community, read, discuss or just lurk. Our facilitators have solutions for some of the thorniest life challenges. Their solutions have been distilled from our books, articles, blogs and course content, all of which are part of the WSC programme.
	Give Advice: We've got a whip-smart community of fabulous women, all of whom have answers to difficult questions. So ask them. The community can share its experiences with you or point you to relevant resources. WSC facilitators might even chime in with a comment or a link to a related article.
	Find Resources: You may just want to jump right to an article or a resource that our facilitators have chosen. The News & Articles section has a huge range of thoughts and solutions on everything to do with living brilliantly. All are meant to help you solve the challenges you're confronting.
	Give Feedback: We hope the WSC Advice Exchange becomes a thriving pseudo-economy so we're using feedback as the currency. If you think a response to a question you've asked - or even a question itself - is brilliant, give it feedback by clicking on the icon.
	Build a Profile: When you register, you'll be given the opportunity to create your own profile page. Like most communities, you can select an avatar and set personal preferences. Most importantly, you can become an influential and oft spoken advocate of your brand of transformation. Many of our clever facilitators have a following and we anticipate that some of our members will, also.
	Build a Following: By posting questions and answering others, you'll start to build a profile within the Exchange. If other community members consistently give highly-rated feedback to your responses or questions, you'll rise through the user ranks. You'll track your progress and see your community flourish and expand. Your standing will be visible throughout the site. Our most senior faculty will be interested in your views; they may even ask you for advice!
	Publish Articles: Exchange members are eligible to submit articles, some of which will be published in our News & Articles area.
	Committee Membership. Some highly regarded Exchange members will be invited to participate in a number of committees and boards. They will contirbute to the shape and furture of WSC by chairing or being members of the Scholarship, Admissions, Curriculum and Future Trends board or committee as honorary or paid members.
	Think Tanks. If you have an idea for a new course unit? Let us know. An innovation in our e-learning environment? We want to know. If you know someone who'd be perfect for our faculty or administration? We're all ears.

So, the WSC Advice Exchange starts the journey of living brilliantly and connects you to dazzling women all over the world. The Exchange fosters an academic culture centred on member-driven innovation and co-creation and engages our students and faculty in lively discussion, brainstorming sessions and two-way advice on everything to do with living a brilliant life.

In the meantime, go ahead: Ask a question, search for an advice, add your wisdom to a conversation. The community's waiting. The floor's open.

We're currently building the Exchange so check back here often or register at Keep Me Informed. It's unlikely that the community will start before September 2010 so, in the meantime, here are a few links to keep you going!
