We do not need more female leaders.
We need more leaders with female qualities.

"Sadly, as we empower women, we force them to become masculine, competitive, tough." Mo Gawdat - Former Chief Business Officer, Google X At the end of his podcast, Steven Bartlett asked Mo about the failures he cherishes the most. “I have failed for many years to empower my feminine side.” Mo continues, “… our world is suffering from hypermasculinity. We turned it into a world of doing.”

A New Era of female leadership begins. The old version of masculine female leadership is past.

While masculine qualities are outer-directed, female qualities are inner-directed. Female qualities include intuitive- and creative intelligence, emotional- and body intelligence, visionary & non-linear thinking, seeing the bigger picture, receptivity, compassion, healing, nurturing, and integrating life's interconnected, relational, collaborative & sensitive aspects.

By themselves, these qualities would prove insufficient for creating true success, as would the qualities of the masculine model by themselves. Both qualities need each other to thrive.

Over the past many years, we've pursued success defined by masculine qualities: to do, act, plan, set goals, strategize, control (others), win, wield command, and accomplish. As brilliant as achievements can be, the masculine power system is ineffective regarding internal measures of success & fulfillment. It cannot build deep connection, meaning & purpose, creative expression, supportive networks, faith, and a sense of belonging.

Women are increasingly experiencing fatigue and exhaustion in organizations and other work environments, causing them to disconnect from themselves to function.

Moral is suffering as women continue to adapt to patriarchal systems that value traditional masculine measures of success, such as positional and monetary rewards. Many women have achieved leadership roles by learning to conform to this system. Others believe it is not worth the time, effort, or sacrifice to rise higher in the company.

If women are to be recruited, retained, engaged, and promoted, women & men must become aware of personal and systematic barriers.

THE BIRD OF HUMANITY

There is a Cherokee prophecy that speaks about this century. It states that the bird of humanity has a male wing & a female wing.
The bird of humanity has been flying for centuries with primarily only its male wing, the female wing unable to extend. Consequently, the male (yang) wing has gotten overly muscularized. The bird of humanity has been soaring in circles, unable to fly in the right direction. The prophecy says that in the 21st century, the female wing will fully extend and express itself entirely in all. The male energy will relax, and the bird of humanity will soar.



An engaging, interactive, educational, and inspiring speaking engagement for present and future female and male leaders on how to break bias and create healthier, less exhausting, and more impactful working environments.
