Xymena Salado

Xymena has navigated from working in international organizations (OECD), foundations (Ford Foundation) and NGOs (Ashoka France). Since 2016 she works as Networks Senior Manager for The Wellbeing Project. She has a broad and global professional experience in networks’ creation, community management and hosting. Xymena enjoys designing meaningful experiences to connect people. She loves the feeling of having a blank page, broad vision, and gradually starting to tune into the group’s wisdom and interests to co-create a meaningful experience for the community. The process and art of listening, designing, connecting, allowing things to emerge, and finding the perfect balance between it all brings her fulfillment and joy. As well as creating the necessary conditions and atmosphere for everyone to feel welcomed, show up fully, and tap into their unique potential. Xymena has been a guest speaker at various global events such as the World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) in Doha, OECD’s netFWD Day in Paris, The Learning for Wellbeing Foundation Community Day in Brussels, Social Venture Institute Conference at Cortes Island in Canada etc. She looks forward to seeing you at Wednesday's Discovery Session! :) She likes to practice yoga, she’s married and has a one year old son.
