Are you so busy fulfilling everyone else's expectations that you've lost touch with yourself? Do you find yourself filling up your "free" hours with mundane tasks and rushing around, never getting it all done? For many women, it's the same kind of story-we hustle to overachieve at work and at home, all in the hopes that we can "crush it" until we finally feel fulfilled. Vanessa Loder invites you to consider this question: "What if the point isn't to crush it in life, but to savor it?"

Bias persists in organizations and society. Despite efforts that have been made in the last few decades, gender and racioethnic equity still hasn't been achieved. What's worse, Black, Indigenous, Asian, and Latina women are being held back more than their White counterparts. Professor Tina Opie first started Shared Sisterhood as a movement to drive gender and racial equity in organizations. Since then, she and professor Beth A. Livingston have worked together to spread the word to leaders across organizations, with thousands of followers joining the cause.

Eine Frau begibt sich auf den Karriereweg. Unerwartete Hindernisse und verborgene Falltüren behindern ihren Aufstieg. Plötzlich, eine Steilwand. Eine Strickleiter wäre praktisch.

Hay muchas mujeres en México haciendo cosas muy interesantes en ámbitos como biología, literatura, tecnología, artes, entre muchas otras.

Sichtbar werden und souverän führen. Frauen sind in Entscheidungs-Positionen immer noch unterrepräsentiert. Unternehmen sollten zukünftig stärker auf Frauen in verantwortungsvollen Positionen setzen, denn ihre Kompetenzen und Fähigkeiten sind wertvoll und wichtig. Doch um eine führende Rolle auszufüllen, müssen Frauen auch führen wollen und sich die vielfachen gestalterischen Möglichkeiten eines Führungsposten vor Augen führen.

Take heart and take a seat at the table with Jeanne Porter King. Drawing from the biblical account of the Samaritan woman at the well, King shows how this outsider and outcast has been reduced to a stereotype by the same racist and sexist forces that attempt to reduce you to a stereotype and hinder your God-given call to leadership. She then shows how God uniquely positioned and equipped her to lead her people to the truth despite attempts to keep her silent and small.

Fast alle Frauen haben Denk- und Verhaltensmuster verinnerlicht, die ihnen schaden. Bedingt durch Erziehung und gesellschaftliche Normen meinen sie oft, die Erwartungen anderer erfüllen zu müssen: Besonders höflich sein. Sich kümmern. Schön sein. Selbst erfolgreiche Frauen knabbern an ihrem Selbstwert und betrachten ihr Können und ihren Körper durch die Defizitbrille. Doch wie können Frauen den Blick auf ihre Kompetenzen, ihre Fähigkeiten und ihr Potenzial richten – auf das, was sie wollen?

As successful as we are as working moms, we all sometimes feel like a hot mess. We take care of our businesses, clients, staff, and projects, and then return home to take care of the demands there. At the end of the day, so many responsibilities fall on our shoulders. At times we screw up, but we do the best we can. And that is wonderful! You are wonderful. But you don’t just need cheerleaders or concepts for empowerment. You need real tools to help you ease the struggle and make changes in your business—and in life.

Global inequality is growing. Financial markets disenfranchise women, the 99 percent, and the planet itself. But what if we found the source of power and turned it inside out? What if we made the tools of the system available to all? From growing up with constrained life chances, to working as the first Bangladeshi woman on Wall Street, to becoming a global leader in impact investing, Shahnaz takes us on a mesmerizing trek of innovation, compassion, and enterprise.

« Les hommes sont plus riches que les femmes. Dès l’enfance, les garçons reçoivent plus d’argent de poche que les filles. Adultes, à poste égal, les femmes sont moins bien payées que les hommes. Et le couple accentue encore les inégalités : au cours de la vie à deux, l’écart ne cesse de se creuser, sans que ni l’une ni l’autre ne s’en rende compte. Ou bien préfère l’ignorer. Chaque fois, il y a des explications et une combinaison de “bonnes raisons” mais le tableau général est accablant. J’écris depuis des années sur les violences sexuelles, le travail domestique, l’invisibilisation des femmes.

Few that know Mary Grothe today would guess that her childhood was traumatic. That she was raised by an alcoholic mother and abusive father in a filthy house, where tar dripped down the walls from the profusion of cigarette smoke. That at fourteen she watched her childhood auctioned off beneath a big top before fleeing town as a result of her parents’ criminal mistakes. Or that dance, her original love and ticket to freedom, would be taken from her in an instant

At some point in their careers, many women encounter the mirrored door—the place where, when presented with opportunities, we reflect inward and hesitate, deem we’re not ready or worthy enough to move forward whether that is to raise our hands or go for the next role. But there is a way to break through, and to overcome the gendered expectations that girls and women internalize over our lifetimes that create a hidden barrier that keeps us from reaching our full potential.
