Episode Description
The ancient city of Rome, now led by its first female mayor, just played host to the WIN conference, Women's International Networking, where nearly 800 women gathered from all corners of the globe. Founder Kristin Envig chose this year's theme as “Leading the Way with Beauty, Connection and Confidence”, providing 30 plus workshops and plenaries that were both inspiring and nourishing for the women executives attending. This is part one of a 2-show special report where I speak with some of the world's leading experts in future forecasting as we look ahead to how work is being transformed and the role women need to play. Speakers Keith Coats from TomorrowToday and Nigel Nicholson, London Business School, discuss how women are better equipped to lead in this new era. Susan Schachterie and Dr Kaouthor Darmoni encourage women to use all their feminine insights and wisdom, and tap into their physical feminine intelligence to bring the woman's touch to their leadership.
The Rise of the Feminine
Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Variety Channel
There are huge shifts happening globally that not only involve the rise of women but also the rise of feminine values in men and, in women, which are re-shaping our collective future.
We discover more and more women coming into their own, finding their unique purpose. In this surge for equality, some men may fear they will be displaced, but in reality, we’ll see how this is a movement that is more about a shared vision for a re-balancing of the planet. It’s not about women taking over but women standing alongside men in their rightful place.
The question for many male leaders is how to integrate this new female power in organizations and fully understand that the shifts happening in their businesses, and politics are an embracing of new feminine values that will not only help them to adapt but also to thrive. This is a space where we can explore and bring together the conversations about what is emerging around the world as we witness shifts in power.
