Lady Anita Duckworth-Bradshaw Powerhouse Global Brand Propagator
When I set out to 'deliver my someone' through magazine publication, I didn't know that we will arrive at this point in just under 5 years. Powerhouse Global Magazine is now being read in over 100 countries of the world - unbelievably beautiful... When I reflect on the journey we have made, all I see is the mighty hand of Almighty God who chose me to run this race as a global leader. I see the dedication and commitment of our design team - especially our lead person who has stayed with us since the inception of this publication. When I stop to ask myself some personal questions in times of difficulties - those times when it looks like no progress has been made. Those times when my strength feels little and doubt sets in. The answer that keeps coming up is: PASSION. Yes! My passion amongst other things has enabled me to keep serving through our global platforms - #pgmag being one of them. In all of this, we would not have gotten this far had it not been for your support. Thank you for helping us to get this far. I and my team remain committed to providing you with quality contents and design as we journey to the top. Thank you and keep winning.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH
PROF. OLGA MROZ Powerhouse Global Impact Leader
I remember reading her story in the 7th Powerhouse Global Book project, and she got me thinking… The sun and the unwavering and unconditional love her mother have for her. This woman is an inspiration to so many individuals around the world. She is one of the world’s finest leaders with a heart of service, great style, and taste of opulence. She is phenomenal in her field of play. Her paintings are in the hands of the rich and famous of the society. She is a global impact leader with a difference. This woman’s name is Prof. Olga Mroz. She is the director Open World and Art Business at Al-Khalifa Business School, and the Editor-In-Chief of AKBS Art Journal. She holds other titles, but she is a true leader with a heart of service.

Yes, I have released my code. "Life Energy", this is my code, which allowed me to become successful, happy. Drawing, art has become the image and style of my life. Visiting museums, exhibitions and meeting artists inspire me to search for "My Self” on canvas. So, thanks to H.E. Zakyah Al Qaydi, The Private office of Her Highness Al Nahyan, I visited the Louvre and the Khawla Foundation for Art and Culture in Abu Dhabi, UAE. It inspired me to paint the painting "The Energy of Life", that is in the White House now. For me, art is my journey through fears, doubts, failures and disappointments. But this is the way to success, to joy and harmony in my life. The role of art in human life is invaluable. It brings people together, gives them the opportunity to communicate without words, feel each other's heartache and sympathize. I am grateful to fate, and I can

beginning of my life, I want to say a big thank you to myself. Like everyone, I had victories and defeats. But each time, in difficult situations, I did not despair, did not give up, looking for a way out. In this case, I turned to art. I painted my picture. They were people dancing in the sun. They called me to life, to love. Yellow dominated the canvas. It is a bright, cheerful color that represents energy and movement. I felt energized and determined to move forward. I am also grateful to myself for always being a thirsty for knowledge, constantly learning, increasing the level of my knowledge. Education is the ticket to the future. Taking this opportunity, I want to appeal to young people: it is important to live in such a way as to leave a trace in life.

PGMAG INTERVIEW
www.powerhouseglobalmag.com
PGMAG INTERVIEW WITH
RAQUEL MILLER (RM) PGMAG: Raquel, welcome to today’s interview with Lady Anita. RM: Lady Anita, thank you for your interest and for providing this forum for discussion. PGMAG: Please briefly introduce yourself to our readers. RM: My name is Raquel Miller, and in a sense, I’m another soul on my journey to self-fulfilment, a seeker, looking to understand myself and my place in the world. I’m the founder of Bunchful, a social enterprise that aims to enhance the work of the giving community and to inspire the growth of generosity as a global way of life. I’m also a Caribbean American. I was born in Jamaica, but I cut my teeth in New York, where I now reside, and have, since the 90’s, after I took my passport and left my small island home, one weekend, while my father was away. I had pooled all the money I received from my high school graduation and after ticket and other travel expenses, I landed at JFK with $75, which I thought was just glorious. PGMAG: It was a great privilege to have spent some time with you at the recently concluded Powerhouse Global Leadership Summit/ Awards event. What where some of your take from the event?
12 JUNE-JULY 2022 # ISSUE 37
RM: Having been to many leadership conferences, I have a context, a perspective and an expectation which I bring with me, when I attend such events, but the Powerhouse Global Leadership Summit & Awards surpassed any expectations I had - for never had I been at a conference that provided both global perspectives and an opportunity for deep intimacy amongst attendees. It had a kind of rawness and vulnerability that allowed the very spirit of the human soul to shine, like beacons on a hill, each of us spreading our own light, dancing, literally and figuratively, to the beats of our favourite drums. This event was inspired and inspiring, and it was so, because of your leadership, Lady Anita. You have provided a forum for those of us who are answering the call

provide the same to others. PGMAG: Would you agree that the way forward for business growth is ‘collaboration?’ RM: Yes, in fact, I was recently asked this question, and the answer I provided is that there are many ways in which collaboration and partnerships can provide support for communities, while profiting for businesses. Long term and enduring partnerships with peer organizations, where participants engage in skill sharing and other outcomes can help generate big picture ideas and innovation that a business may not have achieved in isolation. There was a time, in the not-toodistant past, when companies only responsibility was to their shareholders, and they were allowed to pillage and plunder
for profits and care nothing about the communities that supported them or their people in service. It was a time when we, in a sense, were complicit with these actions, and we would close our eyes and go to sleep at night, but we have now been called, been roused from slumber. That encroaching noise we hear in the background, those small voices that say, ‘something is not right’, can no longer be ignored, because the dawning realization is that we must work together, and together, through collaborations, we can help build businesses that earn profits for owners and grow benefits for communities. In fact, I’m thinking of a story a friend told me of a client she had who worked for (Singer) - a sewing machine company. Her client wanted to find a way to
space and outfitted it with sewing machines and invited the locals, including women who sewed piecemeal work for a living, and through the initiative, she provided the sewing classes free of cost. What resulted was that the students vastly improved the professional quality of their sewing and were able to create greater income for themselves to support their families, and because they had come to know the quality of the Singer sewing machines, they bought those machines for use and recommended them to friends. This word of mouth spread through to larger neighbourhoods and helped promote the growth of Singer worldwide, as they became a household name, which vastly added to their bottom line and reputation.

Powerful Global Women Foundation (Powerhouse Charity) was founded in 20l6 in Nigeria, West Africa, by Lady Anita Duckworth-Bradshaw. The core objective of this organization is to transform the lives of women and children, through various projects centred around the need of the service group. In 20l6 Lady Anita single handedly fed over 400 children as part of “project feed l000 children globally”, and held an empowerment conference for the women. Through this project, so many women have gone to do great things with the knowledge they gained from the event. She recently held a life transforming event for women in Lagos, Nigeria as part of International women’s month celebration 20l8. The turnout was very encouraging. She is working towards supporting more families to keep their children and wards in school through” project back-to-school” starting in September 20l8.
