4. EDITOR’S
NOTE
BEHIND THE CHARGE
Gone are those days when the dreams of breaking
the barrier or reaching the top step of the corporate
ladder were nearly impossible for women. Now
women have come a long way from being home-
makers and competing with some of the most
powerful men in the corporate world. According to
research, only less than 40% of all the tech start-ups
in the United States have at least one woman
member.
G
Women-led companies have performed at least
three times better than companies led by their male
counterparts, and now this trend is expanding in
start-ups too. As per IDC, the number of women
employees in various senior leadership positions
increased from 21% to 24% by 2018-2019. Also,
reports say, companies with more than 50% of
senior leadership roles occupied by women
employees are more likely to offer equal pay, higher
job satisfaction, and better employee engagement.
Additionally, women-led businesses expand much
quicker than others, enabling them to grow
exponentially.
From leading start-ups to leading global businesses,
women have achieved nearly all the milestones that
one can think of. However, their journey to become
influential businesswomen has never been easy.
Most of them have fought against many opposing
views and proved their potential against all odds.
In this edition of The 10 Most Influential
Businesswomen Making a Difference, 2022, we
have listed the top influential businesswomen who
have made significant marks in their respective
sectors. This list is in no particular order and does
not represent any specific sector. Instead, this list
strives to recognize women working to create
globally known brands through their commitment
and hard work.

The 10 Most Influen�al Business Women Making a Difference, 2022

10. nspirational and Visionary! These are the two
words that are enough to describe the elegant
Russian-born American Oksana Kolesnikova.
She is a renowned pianist and composer, educator, and
personal mentor to the franchise owners of Oksana®
Enrichment Programs. Oksana is the CEO of three
companies named Oksana® Management Group,
Inc. (OMG, Inc.), Oksana® Enrichment Programs,
and Oksana® Foundation. In 2019 Oksana launched
franchising opportunities for her scholastic and arts-fo-
cused business, which was already successfully operat-
ing with multiple instructors and was established in
multiple schools in Southern California.
After moving to LA from Florida, she landed
a position as an in-house pianist at the legend-
ary Polo Lounge in Beverly Hills, the place
patronized by celebrities, world leaders, and
business moguls, people that Oksana used to
see only on TV only growing up in Russia. At
that point, the new chapter of her life had
begun and she started transitioning from
being a performing artist to becoming a
businesswoman
Oksana was born
in Siberia,
Russia, and
immigrated to
the US during
the fall of the
Soviet Union in
her early teens.
Her passion has
always been
music and she
pursued her
passion by
studying music
on scholarship
first at Saint
Petersburg
College, and
later at Florida
State University.
Oksana met her
husband, Alex,
while attending
FSU, and he
became Oksa-
na’s music
manager and
business partner. After her graduation, she embarked
on the journey as a performing artist, touring the US
and abroad, sharing her music with audiences across
the world. Oksana also entertained U.S. troops
through MWR in Europe and Asia along with United
Nations officials
She says, “During my 7-year tenure at the
Polo Lounge, I gradually started building my
business, first
as a piano
studio, mainly
with my clients
who were
celebrities,
their kids and
friends they
would refer, and
later expanded
to opening
Oksana School
of Music that
included not
only piano but
other instru-
ments such as
guitar, singing,
violin, drums,
etc, the place
where I was
teaching along-
side with the
roster of other
instructors that
I hired and who
specialized in
their instru-
ments.” Later by 2010, Oksana opened her 1st
corporation Oksana Management Group. At
this point, Oksana and her company grew to
include not only music but also foreign
languages and academic tutoring.

COVER STORY 09

11. Oksana has also recorded eight CDs of original,
classical, and popular music and her instructional
video for students of piano. Her “Free Floating” CD
won the 2010 Best Classical Album of the Year on
SoloPiano.com. Over the years, Oksana has collabo-
rated with many international musical artists for
recordings, and her original compositions have been
chosen by many international artists to record on
their CDs. Her CD, “Best of Two Worlds,” evolved
from a collaboration with notable fine artist Jim
Warren. “Oksanabella,” her YouTube channel
featuring her performances, has over 3 million
upload views from all over the world.
Twelve years after opening the Oksana Management
Group, the organization has expanded to provide not
only Music (piano, singing, guitar, violin), K-12 All
subject Academic Tutoring, Foreign Languages
(Italian, Spanish, French, Chinese), but also other
popular after school enrichment programs such as
Chess, Acting/Drama, Animation, Painting/Drawing,
Cooking classes, Financial Literacy for children and
teens, Science and more. The organization currently
provides its services not only to its private clients
but also to schools (private, charter, public), School
Districts, Municipalities, and Counties.
Oksana Management Group reached such an expan-
sion that it decided to Franchise in 2019 through
Oksana Franchising International, dba Oksana
Enrichment. Now Oksana Franchises are currently
being awarded in 35 states and duplicating its
success in different communities across the US,
allowing other entrepreneurs to succeed in this
industry.
Oksana was lucky to discover her passions early on,
which are music, children, and education. She is so
much in love with what she does, that she doesn’t
even consider it “work” in a traditional sense.
Oksana is consumed by her mission from the
moment she wakes up to the time she goes to bed.
Oksana lives and breathes the legacy she is creating.
If something
doesn’t kill
you, it makes
you stronger.

Spreading Knowledge
It's all About Discovering Passion

12. Like all businesses, Oksana Management Group, Inc was also hit hard by the pandemic. Oksana says, “You see,
as a performing artist, for so many years, I have been performing at countless charitable and Fundraiser events,
and every time I had a dream to someday create my charitable Foundation. Well, the day has come when we
found ourselves in the unprecedented times of this pandemic. The Oksana Foundation 501c3 was born with a
mission and the goal of providing educational opportunities to the underprivileged youth completely free of
charge.” Since the launch of the Oksana Foundation, the organization has helped countless youth enjoy free
classes, especially when it learned that children were locked down during the pandemic faced dealing with its
harsh realities. The Foundation’s programs brought them purpose, productiveness, new skill exploration, and
prevented them from being bored by doing something creative. Currently, it is bringing additional programs to
reach more and more youth across different communities.
Oksana thinks her biggest
achievement by far is
contributing and giving
back to the community
through her Oksana Foun-
dation and helping youth.
Her brand, Oksana School
of Music was awarded the
Best of Beverly Hills award
in 2014. CBS recognized
her as the “Woman of the
Week” and she was award-
ed the Best Classical
Album award by SoloPiano
Radio Station for her CD
“Free Floating”.
Through her dedication to
youth, Oksana has branched
into philanthropy with Oksana
Foundation, a non-profit
organization that provides
educational opportunities to
underprivileged youth. “There are many children who are at a disadvantage and now I can finally give back
and help them to succeed in giving them the opportunities and tools to better themselves. I am excited to make
a positive change in people’s lives and look forward to doing so for years to come.”
“I wouldn’t be where I’m today if it was not driven by my passion for work that I do. But everyone that I met
along the way on my exciting and meaningful journey, had a special place in my heart and shaped me into
who I am today. Even the naysayers had their place, as I always enjoyed proving them wrong. All I can say is
that success is the best revenge!” - She adds.

13. “We are grateful to all our sponsors and donors who have
joined us with this noble cause and showed their support
and believe in our mission”.- says Oksana.
When we requested Oksana for her important advice
for aspiring entrepreneurs she says, “Never give up
in the face of challenges and adversity. Strength and
resilience come as the skill you acquire along the
way. And with this skill, you can conquer the world!
Cheers to all you successful, resilient, and strong
female entrepreneurs in the making!”
Oksana’s goal is to grow Oksana Foundation and
for it to become a globally recognized brand
name. Where not only local but international
communities and world youth can benefit from
her organization’s efforts. She feels blessed to
have a great team in place and she does not doubt
that Oksana Foundation will achieve its goals and
do its part to make the world a better place to live
in.
An Advice Tackling Challenges
The Road to Future
Oksana believes, growing a business, there are
just too many challenges that need to undergo.
There are just too many to list here. But every
challenge that came to her was welcomed because
it taught her a better way of doing things, improv-
ing her business, adjusting the course, and learn-
ing different lessons along the way.

BoardWise | CEO
Helping Clients
with Their
Governance
Challenges
15 15
The 10 Most Influen�al Business Women Making a Difference, 2022

17. Meet Dr. Donna Hamlin, the CEO of BoardWise,
who had a goal and followed a path to reach it. The
oldest amongst seven children, she became a ‘little
mom’ at the tender age of 11 when her mother fell ill
for five years. Someone had to take care of the home
and children, while Donna’s father worked two jobs
to pay for all of them and hospital and medical costs.
After coming back from school, Donna used to clean,
wash clothes, prepare dinner and made sure her
siblings did their homework.
After she turned 16, Donna’s father explained to her
that he had dreams for her to go to college but had no
way to pay for school. So, she worked three jobs in
the last two years of high school, saved some money
for college, and secured a student loan to cover her
education. She completed her B.A, M.S. and Ph.D.
before she turned 26, all while working full-time.
Soon, she developed her interest in business and
organizations and built a career in human resources
and marketing. With the benefit of two special men-
tors, opportunities opened to build her competencies.
Spanning time, working in more than 50 countries
with executives, teams, and boards of companies
across industries and cultures continues to teach
Donna every day. She is grateful for the amazing
adventures, experiences, learning, and friends made
over time.
Before her role at BoardWise, Donna founded
Hamlin Harkins, Ltd., where she developed a
successful track record in strategic change manage-
ment, and human performance management, serving
clients from Fortune 500 global enterprises to
start-up companies in more than 30 countries.

18. Unique Offerings
BoardWise serves both board directors and manage-
ment teams. Donna’s management consulting firm,
Hamlin Harkins, Ltd., started in 1982 and will be 40
years old on April 30, 2022. The organization
expanded with governance services in 2010 by
creating Boardwise as a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Donna recognized many clients were struggling with
governance issues and many regulatory changes
happening all across the planet. Helping both man-
agement and boards, the brand promise is; “Fresh
Solutions to manage and govern well.”
Currently, the organization aims to look at the immi-
nent challenges with creativity and wisdom to find
uniquely better ways to resolve issues or take advan-
tage of opportunities for long-term value. The com-
pany has received awards for its proprietary tool,
Cascade®, which determines the most powerful
message strategy for company brands and product
positioning.
It has never failed a client in the last 40 years. Board-
Wise also received an award for its psychometric
tool - Board Bona Fide® - which determines both
one’s orientation to problem-solving and board
16 16

19. readiness. This helps improve board group dynamics,
which is the key variable for board effectiveness.
Leadership Principles
Donna has four leadership principles:
Creativity: Donna believes creativity is all about
combining unrelated ideas to create a useful solu-
tion or direction. The word useful is key. If the
combination is not useful, it is just original.
She says, “While building creative capability in
organizations, leaders need to understand and
institute practices that increase it.”
Wisdom: It is the ability to know what is true or
right based on the collection of one’s knowledge.
According to Donna, intelligence and wisdom are
two sides of a similar coin, namely our mental
ability to succeed and live in the world. Intelli-
gence is an individual's capacity to store informa-
tion while wisdom is more practical knowledge
gained through experience and knowledge beyond
one’s personal experience. Wisdom helps one to
exercise good judgment, based on a deep ability to
discern the inner qualities and relationships among
factors.
Encouragement: One of the most vital parts of
leadership is to encourage others. It takes two
qualities; believing in yourself and showing your
belief in others. When people are sure about your
intentions and confidence in them, you inspire
them to do their best.
We before I: Donna believes, thinking from “We”
is more potent than “I”. Leaders who think with
and about “Us” create inclusion, engagement, and
more high-quality ideation and solutions to chal-
lenges. The world is complex and needs many
“We” teams to take on the challenges we face.
Lead team with a vow: Together, we will be
undaunted by the challenge and solve it.”
Tackling Challenges
The challenge for governance is how to evolve and
improve at a global level. Nothing sits above the
While there is talk of bringing parties together on
this topic, the pace is slow. BoardWise advocates to
build a think tank coalition to research, evaluate and
share global results to truly make informed improve-
ments in governance.
Picture of the Future
Under Donna’s leadership, BoardWise’s work
includes global research on best practices in gover-
nance and leadership, providing independent evalua-
tions of boards with recommendations for improve-
ment. Lastly, the organization also works to educate
and certify candidates for board roles to arm them
for success.
Donna believes that Boardwise’s future outlook is
tied to;
Director Pipeline Development: According to
Donna, more talent is needed for board roles
shortly. The organization is expanding its board
certification offerings to help increase the pipe-
line of board-ready professionals.
Best Practices: Governance practices across the
planet differ considerably. BoardWise aims to
offer more board evaluations to expand the value
of its research insights with more boards.
Transformation: Inventing breakthroughs by
staying current on changes happening daily while
seeing well into the future at the same time.

In her role, Ms. Dawson has developed new
strategies for sales management, new business
development, product development, distribution
channel management, and customer service. She
has focused the company’s growth strategy on
business partnerships, online marketing, customer
service and the application of emerging
technologies such as AI to the company’s growing
list business tools.
Helping Clients with Great Services
In Ms. Dawson’s word, “TDP’s focus is always
on the client’s needs and case objectives.… It
takes the time to dissect the case facts whether
they involve evidence questions about medical
causation or pricing, and we work with our clients
to get those facts right.”
TDP’s services cover, but are not limited to:
• Regulatory and compliance assessments,
• Market pricing and reimbursement analyses,
• Evidence-based medical causation analysis, and
• Physician life care plan critiques.

Controlling the Situation
For Ms. Dawson, being TDP’s key person was
initially challenging. But studying the business and
recognizing the utility of creating an environment
where physicians, regulatory and compliance
professionals, and economists can successfully
work with one another coupled with an
understanding of the client’s needs has enabled Ms.
Dawson to move smoothly through many of those
early challenges and kept TDP’s clients coming
back.
Failures and Accomplishments
Ms. Dawson always says, ‘Trust but verify.” She
believes, trusting without verification was a
mistake she made early in her career. As a more
seasoned professional, she understands that having
verifiable processes in place create the results
clients trust and is a vital element to success.
Ms. Dawson’s greatest accomplishment has been
her ability to build a strong team capable of
carrying TDP forward during its nearly 14-year
journey.
Mission, Vision Future Roadmap
Ms. Dawson’s ability to maintain a “Grounded
Flo” through every season in her life has propelled
her success. It is that ability, which pushes her to
continue achieving her professional and personal
goals. Ms. Dawson maintains that “As you go
through life, your experiences turn into lessons and
you must harness those lessons into actionable
goals” She also adds, “Doing so, builds your
character, prevents repetitive mistakes, and forces
you to continue challenging yourself.”
When it comes to the future of TDP, Ms. Dawson
says, “We plan to expand our brand as an elite
consulting firm offering top tier expert witness
services in medical causation and pricing analysis
in the litigation support arena. More to come in the
next couple of months.”

25. The dream to ‘be one’s own boss’ rarely includes an
attorney. Lawyers are typically found in conjunction
with nightmares. For this reason alone, so many
business start-ups, start off on the wrong foot. With a
small chunk of change in their pocket and a desire for
betterment or independence, many individuals will start
a business endeavor ‘half-cocked.’ Most businesses
need a business attorney to help them operate efficient-
ly and stay beyond reproach. Kelly Bagla, Esq., the
founder/CEO of Bagla Law Firm, APC, is one such
business attorney who has dedicated her law practice to
helping entrepreneurs get their proper footing and
putting them on the path to success.
Kelly is a multi-degreed lawyer, who began her
career working with a Fortune-500 bio-tech compa-
ny in Silicon Valley. She later joined the San Diego
based, international law firm, Baker McKenzie
LLP; and during her time there, she advised both
international and domestic clients on corporate and
securities Law.
Currently, Kelly and her associates serve as general
counsel for their clients. Bagla Law Firm is a

and provides business law advice and support to
entrepreneurs worldwide. Bagla Law Firm has won

Professional of the Year USA by Corporate Live Wire.
Early Life:
Growing up the youngest (and favourite) of seven
children, Kelly got the special privilege of seeing
ingenuity in action from a young age. Kelly’s father, a
factory worker for most of her childhood, scrimped,
saved, and strategized for years. Ultimately, he bought
the very company he had workedfor, for so many
years, and ‘became his own boss’ as the very first
business owner in her family. This passion for better-
ment, and follow-thru on growth as an individual, were
some of the base principles on which Kelly was
brought up.
Kelly’s father had not only successfully climbed the
corporate ladder, from worker to owner, but he man-
aged it all while maintaining the support and loyalty of
those who he employed. Having worked side-by-side
with the men and women who were the backbone of
his establishment, gave her father a unique position
amongst the leaders she had witnessed prior. From
that point forward, Kelly knew that she wanted to
doanything in her power to be a part of helping others
get that same opportunity, to have such a truly empow-
ering transformative journey.
Doing Things with Great Skill:
Kelly takes her personal life just as
seriously as she takes her clients’ work-
Mind, Body, and Spirit. In the 2010
natural bodybuilding competition,
Kelly was named ‘Ms. Southern Cali-
fornia’ where she won her professional
bodybuilding card. She can be found
‘grabbing life by the pearls’ early
before dawn. “Before most people roll
out of bed, morning run, daily medita-
tion, early morning workouts, and
healthy intake means healthy output”
Kelly states. Kelly’s unique hours
allow her to serve the wide ranging, far
stretching, clientele base that she alone
caters to. Located in Egypt and want an
early morning zoom? She’s got you.
Lunch conference in Anaheim, California? Kelly’s
there. Quickly touching base with an Aussie Corp.?
Kelly’s on it… She stays available to clients in a
variety of different time zones.
“Takes one to know one.” Hollow words to an
untrained ear. The only way to fully understand
that transformative journey Kelly had been
witness to in her father, was to ‘walk a mile in his
shoes.’ It takes an entrepreneur to help an entre-
preneur, and from inventing a plush toy (Eardor-
ables™), to developing an online do-it-yourself
entrepreneur’s legal packet designed to allow any
individual the proper tools to start their very own
business both safely and securely (GoLegalYour-
self.com), all the way around to more than a dozen
other businesses including starting and running
one of the most recognized Law Firms in San
Diego, Kelly knows exactly how complicated
start-ups can be.
Don’t just ‘Trust your
Gut’… Trust an EXPERT!!

Bagla Law Firm has zero intentions to diversify its
offerings, in an effort to ‘appeal’ to new clientele.
We do ‘a handful of things with expert level skill’
Kelly says. Having been through the start-up,
growth, and sale of business many times over at
this point, Kelly takes that two decades worth of
knowledge and experience, and fine tunes every
business endeavour with the best possible outcome
allowed her clients. She makes sure provisions are
made for all of the little hiccups and pitfalls that an
unexperienced entrepreneur wouldn’t be privy to.
Bagla Law Firm’s target audience is entrepreneurs
who come from different walks of life
24 24

28. (Just like Kelly); and those who are serious about
business formation and asset protection. Bagla Law
Firm is the best name in the business for individuals
who are ready and willing to go out and ‘grab life by
the pearls!’ Kelly’s level of real-life experience, and
length of reigning at the top, sets Bagla Law Firm apart
on such a higher level when it comes to who you want
on your team... Otherwise that ‘American Dream’ can
become a nightmare.
Onward Upward:
When asked about the future, Kelly quips, “Big things
are coming. We’re aiming for the moon, and we won’t
settle for anything less than the stars.” With its entry
into various new industry outlets, the law firm is likely
to continue on an upward trend this year.
As far as the circumstances surrounding current
events, Kelly is overly confident in the finely crafted,
strong and powerful businesswoman that she has
developed in to. Her morals, ethics, and values, lay
securely intact, and Kelly’s uncompromising integrity
allows her a sense of clarity and calm, when faced
with the stressors of our current environment.
She expresses, “I feel incredibly blessed… But
remember: It didn’t happen overnight. It didn’t
happy by dumb luck or happenstance. Success
comes from many many years of hard work. I have
thriving businesses. I get to use those businesses as
a platform to help people all over the world, every
single day. All the while, I get to do this being
surrounded by my fur babies, in an office where I
have put my blood, sweat, and tears into making the
life I have created for myself today. This is such a
Good Life! And the
greatest of accom-
plishments. Anyone
can have this. I can
