This International Women's Day, INSEAD takes a look at persistent myths about women in business that need to be shattered and replaced with clear facts. Because when women have the same opportunities to rise up the ranks and take the lead, organisations do better.

Speaker: Jo Miller, CEO, Be Leaderly
Learning Objective: Examine practices for creating a strategic work environment and increasing productivity
What kind of environment is cultivated in your organization? This is not a new question; it is the real world! We all want environments that value our contributions as well as those of our team members, and opportunities for growth, along with mutual respect. As with all other business practices, we must be strategic about creating environments that uphold the values and missions of the organization. This seminar will examine new ways to stretch yourself, grow your team, and breathe life into your work environment and culture.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
1. Look at specific qualities of work environments that stifle creativity.

The quality of an organization’s leadership and management is critical to its success. This is true at team, department, and organizational levels. However, what’s the secret to that quality? How do you ensure it throughout the organization? How do you become an excellent leader and manager yourself? As with any professional skills, the skills of leadership and management can be learned and practiced. This course is specifically designed to help you do just that, whatever your role in the organization.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:

These perceptions can have a real impact on career trajectories and cause contributions to be ignored and diminished. Join us as we discuss how women can help build and support each other’s rise to the executive level and avoid undercutting each other.

Maat, jotka ovat onnistuneet sukupuolten välisen tasa-arvon toteuttamisessa, ovat muita kilpailukykyisempiä.

On the cover: Women and leadership 35
Women start careers in business and other professions with the same
level of intelligence, education, and commitment as men. Yet comparatively
few reach the top echelons.
This gap matters not only because the familiar glass ceiling is unfair, but also
because the world has an increasingly urgent need for more leaders. All
men and women with the brains, the desire, and the perseverance to lead
should be encouraged to fulfill their potential and leave their mark.
With all this in mind, the McKinsey Leadership Project—an initiative to
help professional women at McKinsey and elsewhere—set out four years ago
to learn what drives and sustains successful female leaders. We wanted to
help younger women navigate the paths to leadership and, at the same time,
to learn how organizations could get the best out of this talented group.
To that end, we have interviewed more than 85 women around the world
(and a few good men) who are successful in diverse fields. Some lead 10,000
people or more, others 5 or even fewer. While the specifics of their lives
vary, each one shares the goal of making a difference in the wider world. All
were willing to discuss their personal experiences and to provide
Centered leadership:
How talented women thrive
A new approach to leadership can help women become more self-confident
and effective business leaders.

insights into what it takes to stay the leadership course. We have also studied
the academic literature; consulted experts in leadership, psychology,
organizational behavior, and biology; and sifted through the experiences of
hundreds of colleagues at McKinsey.
From the interviews and other research, we have distilled a leadership
model comprising five broad and interrelated dimensions (exhibit): meaning,
or finding your strengths and putting them to work in the service of an
inspiring purpose; managing energy, or knowing where your energy comes
from, where it goes, and what you can do to manage it; positive framing, or
adopting a more constructive way to view your world, expand your horizons,
and gain the resilience to move ahead even when bad things happen;
connecting, or identifying who can help you grow, building stronger relation-
ships, and increasing your sense of belonging; and engaging, or finding
your voice, becoming self-reliant and confident by accepting opportunities
and the inherent risks they bring, and collaborating with others.
We call this model centered leadership. As the name implies, it’s about having
a well of physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual strength that
drives personal achievement and, in turn, inspires others to follow. What’s
particularly exciting is that we are starting to discover ways women can
actively build the skills to become more self-confident and effective leaders.

Seven ways businesses can be a force for goodINSEAD
Business as a force for good doesn’t have to be a grand gesture; it can present itself in small and subtle ways,” says Ilian Mihov, Dean of INSEAD. Here are seven ways businesses and leaders can do their part and make a difference to the world we live in.
The maturity and diversity of the Singapore-based alumni is reflected in their executive positions within the organisations they serve and lead. From chairmen of global multinationals to managing partners at consulting firms; from investment bank CEOs to political leaders to successful entrepreneurs – INSEAD alumni play essential roles in the Singapore and Asian economies.
The Singapore alumni community consists of a very engaged group of 2,448 alumni, committed to INSEAD. This is reflected in the high levels of both event attendance and donor participation.
The donation statistics show that Singapore has not only one of the highest worldwide participation rates in giving back to the school, but also some of the largest donation amounts from individual alumni. A big thank you to our Singapore-based INSEAD Alumni Fund (IAF) Trustees for their continuous engagement with all the alumni based here on our ‘little red dot’!
Our dynamic, hardworking Singapore National Alumni Association (NAA) Executive Committee is as diverse as our alumni base – including Argentinian, Dutch, British, Singaporean, American, Indian, German, French, Lebanese and Australian members!
Despite spending much time and resources developing ambitious strategies, why do some leaders still fail to execute them? Based on articles and research by INSEAD faculty, this SlideShare explores how managers can boost that one vital – but often neglected – element within the organisation: emotional capital.

“Many people would be better off if they did less and reflected more.” — Manfred Kets de Vries, INSEAD Distinguished Professor of Leadership Development & Organisational Change
Despite making technological advances to speed up our work, we somehow find ourselves working more—not less. The busy lifestyle may deceptively make us feel productive and accomplished. But research has finally exposed the tolls of avoiding free time: depression, sleep deprivation, relationship breakdown and poor quality of work, to name a few. Doing nothing may sound like a waste of time, but it's one of the secrets to keeping your brain in top shape.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
