Instead of celebrating International Women’s Day (IWD) once a year, how about living it every day?

This year’s theme is just predestined for this purpose “DigitALL: Innovation and Technology for Gender Equality”. This highlights the role of innovative technologies for gender equality. Worldwide, however, only 22% of the artificial intelligence workers are women according to UN Women. So there is still much to be done.

THANK YOU to everyone who is already making every day IDW by, for example:

1. fostering knowledge transfer with digital tools, like Ramona Lange, Carin Eisenstein & team with the Finance-FEM-Lab of jumpp & J.P. Morgan.
2. partnering with UN Women to ensure more Women in AI & Robotics, like Sheila Beladinejad, Prof. Dr. Alexandra Wuttig & team.
3. building initiatives for more women in leadership positions, like Monika Schulz-Strelow, Prof. Dr. Anja Seng with FidAR Frauen in die Aufsichtsräte e.V.!

By the way, until 15 March you can nominate the successor of the year for the she succeeds award of the Association of German Women Entrepreneurs (VdU). Oh, and for 23-25 April we recommend the Global Female Leaders – Changemaker Forum, the Davos for Female Executives.

What awards, events and initiatives can you recommend for more women in tech, female founders and female leaders?

We look forward to hearing from you, please comment below our IWD’s LinkedIn post.

“What was the outcome of the last meeting again?” This is a question all of us are probably familiar with. Meetings can quickly become chaotic and ineffective if clear outcomes and responsibilities are not established.

According to a recent article by ntv NEWS, “most meetings cost more than 1000 euros per hour.”

Those who know us know that we ask a single question at the end of every meeting. This simple question has proven to be extremely effective in creating clarity and accountability, and ensuring that everyone knows what steps need to be taken next.

In our experience, this method works really well. However, it also requires a certain level of discipline and commitment from all participants. If everyone is willing to contribute and stick to the agreements, meetings can become a powerful tool for business success! And to help make that happen, we have a bonus tip for you today!

Here we go. This one question is what makes meetings meaningful: who does what by when? Bonus tip: Determine the first step for completing the task right away, which should take no longer than 10 minutes, so that the task doesn’t become an elephant.

So, what are you waiting for? Try it out and let us know how it worked for you and your meetings. We’re excited to hear about your experiences! You can contact us here.

Maximize your efficiency and increase your productivity with the Ivy Lee Method. This method helps you,

• • maintain focus,
  • save time,
  • stay on top of things,
  • complete projects successfully and
  • increase your productivity.

Charles M. Schwab was a wealthy steel magnate and president of Bethlehem Steel. He was looking for methods to improve his efficiency and hired management consultant Ivy Lee in 1918. Lee promised Schwab that it would take him only 15 minutes and that Schwab would pay him if the method worked.

Three months later, Schwab paid Lee $25,000 (valued at $400,000) for the best and most profitable lesson of his life. Here’s how:

1. 1. write down the six most important tasks you need to do the next day.
   2. rank these tasks in order of importance.
   3. start with the first task the next day and complete it.
   4. once the first task is done, move on to the next task.
   5. check the priorities again and move on to the next task.
   6. repeat the process every working day.

What other methods can you recommend? We look forward to your experiences and comments on LinkedIn!
