60. #IWD Special: The skills women need to thrive (live event)


Listen Later

 Hey hey, welcome GrowGetters to our very first live podcast event in celebration of International Women’s Day (IWD)! This week we went LIVE with our listeners via Zoom in celebration of IWD 2021. This was the first time we recorded live (on air) in front of people (so forgive us for any fumbles and stumbles we made along the way).


We started this podcast because we believe that there is a genuine gap for “future skills” content for women, delivered by women who are also on the constant journey of upskilling, remaining relevant in our careers, and who have a thirst for knowledge in the worlds of business, tech, and leadership.


GrowGetters was born with a big ambition: to see more women at the decision-making table, more women crushing it in their careers, and more female-led side hustles and businesses…because we truly believe the more women in business and leadership there - the better the world will be.


So in today’s LIVE podcast event recording, we take you through what we believe are the most in-demand skills that women need to thrive in their careers in 2021 and beyond.


This is based on research from a variety of credible sources (from HBR, to BCG, McKinsey, and more), fantastic evidence-based business books, as well as in our own experience having worked in both the startup and innovation scenes which typically are some of the most pioneering fields when it comes to “future skills”.


Today we touch on the key skills in the following 4 key categories:

1. Leadership

2. Career

3. Business and

4. Technology
