The first edition of I Create Namibia for the year is slated for this Saturday, 18 January at the Goethe-Institute. Karen Powell and Cindy van Wyk are listed as speakers. Powell and Van Wyk will speak on setting and smashing goals and the power of journaling, respectively. tjil caught up with organiser Betty Sibeso of Beso Media to find out how this year's I Create Namibia series will be different from previous years, and more.
tjil (t): This is the first creative workshop by I Create Namibia this year. How is it going to be different from previous workshops?
Betty Sibeso (BS): The I Create Namibia series we are hosting this year will all be different from the previous workshops we hosted. They will be themed and aimed at educating. We have also added a creative session that will see our audience learn how to create something.
t: How has this platform grown since its inception?
BS: We went from having one event a year to having 12 events a year. We have also received more interest and support than we did the other years.
t: What criteria did you look at when you selected the speakers for this particular creative workshop?
BS: We established a theme and then looked at industry people who excelled in that particular department. For the talk on setting goals and planning for the year, we have creativity and prosperity Coach Karen Powell. For the creative session about journaling, we have writer and sub-editor Cindy van Wyk.
t: What are you hoping attendees will leave with after this session?
BS: I hope they leave with tools that will help them set their goals and go after them. I hope they learn the importance and benefits of journaling and, of course, how to. This Saturday will be the first of 12 events. We will have an I Create Namibia every month hosted at Goethe-Institute Namibia. Themes include running a creative business, tax and finances, marketing your creative business and so much more.
