  • Summary

  • 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.

    Is it time to call in the Grandmothers?
    Oct 31 2016
    In the final episode of this first series of The Rise of the Feminine we reflect on the topics discussed with guests, revisit highlights of the show, where more than 40 different experts provided wisdom and important insights informing our present and future. The main topic for the episode is the role of elders, primarily women elders. We will look at the significance of the older, wise women and the archetype of the grandmother and the contribution they have been making to the rise of the feminine. As we move away from patriarchy, the dominant culture of the last few thousand years, this show is interested in how we view women leaders who are older, and explore why we have such a problem with older women in society. With contributions from Gary Malkin, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Philippa Blackham and Janice Dolley.

  • The Price of Motherhood - Too Expensive, Cheap Labour or Priceless?

    The Price of Motherhood - Too Expensive, Cheap Labour or Priceless?
    Oct 24 2016
    Today we have five guests on our subject of motherhood exploring the cost of this to women, the lost opportunities and how a new narrative is being created about maternity leave and women returning to work. This is a great follow-on from previous conversations about the Feminisation of Business because achieving greater equality at the top of organisations is very much hampered by women leaving the talent pipeline that serves those executive positions. Taking time out for motherhood is obviously a key factor. My conversations will be with Prof Shelley Correll from the Michelle R. Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford Universit: Indra Adnan of the Soft Power Network, a specialist in ‘new’ transformational politics, London: Andrea Vitullo, co-author of Maternity is the Master and CEO of Inspire, based in Milan, Italy: Dr Giorgia Arnaboldi, CEO Shell Germany: and finally Dr Kaouthar Darmoni, asst Professor of Gender and Media in the Netherlands.

  • The Feminisation of Capitalism

    The Feminisation of Capitalism
    Oct 17 2016
    Business is changing and if it isn’t, it seems to be in trouble. New priorities and new values are being embraced and with love, care, compassion, collaboration and valuing relationships all being embraced more widely. It really looks like the feminisation of business is starting to take place to the benefit of both men and women. Many speakers talked about a shift happening articulating how the system both needs and is ready for embracing a new version of capitalism in the 21st century, and with these new feminine values, women will be bringing more answers and providing much more important leadership. This episode of The Rise of the Feminine is a continuation of my report from the WIN Conference and we are looking at “The Feminisation of Capitalism”. With guests Kristin Engvig, Geraldine Bown,Avivah Wittenberg Cox and Raj Sisodia, I discuss workplace of the future and how feminisation will be able to fulfill the needs of these spaces.
