The 10 Most Exciting Trends for Women in 2014 [Pt. 1] The 10 Most Exciting Trends for Women in 2014 [Pt. 1] As a noticeable idea pioneer on the effect of innovation on society, work and vocations; a writer of 11 books; named 2012 Most Influential Woman in Bay Area Business by the San Francisco Business Times; and with a large number of media appearances added to her repertoire, Wilen unquestionably knows some things about ladies and the work environment. Peruse on to find 10 of the most energizing patterns for ladies and why Wilen accepts 2014 will be such a compelling year for the women. What is ladies' history month? As indicated by womenshistorymonth.gov, in 1987, after petitions from the National Women's History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9, which chose the long stretch of March 1987 as Ladies' History Month. Wikipedia clarifies that during this month every year individuals around the globe commend the commitments of ladies to occasions in history and contemporary society. The U.S., UK, and Australia all celebrate during the period of March, relating with International Womens Day on March 8 (which began in 1911). Pattern 1: Women sharks on the ascent Shark Tank is a mainstream U.S. Program that features a developing pattern in the U.S. toward business enterprise. Are ladies taking an interest in this development? Indeed. I am exceptionally amped up for the reports and updates from the Kaufmann Institute, The Small Business Administration (SBA), and cutting edge shows like Shark Tank as it affirms that ladies (and men) of any age have many profession alternatives and beginning and possessing a business is a practical choice. Ladies claimed organizations present the quickest developing sections in the U.S. economy; they grew 44 percent from 1997-2007, which is multiple times as quick as male claimed firms. There are 7.8 million ladies claimed organizations in the U.S. furthermore, 88 percent are independent companies. Around 8.6 million ladies claimed firms produce 1.3 trillion in income and utilize 7.8 million individuals. In the previous year, ladies began in excess of 200,000 organizations (550 every day/23 hr). VC firms that put resources into ladies drove organizations performed better than all men-drove organizations, as indicated by the SBA Office of Advocacy. Pattern 2: Women in the driver's seat Mary Barra turning into the CEO of General Motors was ongoing news; in any case, the quantity of ladies as CEOs in Fortune 500 firms are not expanding as quick as ladies trusted. What is your point of view on ladies assuming responsibility for the driver's seat? As indicated by the Catalyst gathering, ladies presently hold 4.6 percent of Fortune 500 CEO positions and 4.6 percent of Fortune 1000 CEO positions. I think it is essential to take a gander at patterns that are happening progressively. For instance in the 2000's we have seen ladies seek after and move into initiative and Fortune 500 firms CEO jobs, for example, - Meg Whitman (Ebay 1998-2008) who ran for senator (2010) and afterward become the CEO of HP in 2011; - Ginny Rommety CEO IBM (2012); - Marisa Mayer CEO Yahoo(2012); and now - Mary Barra (Jan 2014) and forthcoming Susan N. Story will become CEO of American Water Works Company, Inc. on May 9, 2014. Simply taking a gander at Fortune 500-100 firms, an examination by Grant Thornton demonstrates that pipeline is significant higher rates improve the probability and line positions. Ladies' desires have expanded. (Ladies in senior administration, 2013) I see that ladies are moving into the driver seat in Fortune 500 firms however I think they are as of now there in non-Fortune 500 firms and that is the place the activity development is in the U.S. Pattern 3: Young firms extend employment opportunities for ladies Would you be able to clarify your announcement on youthful firms as initiative open doors for ladies? I think it is significant for us to see where work creation is coming from for us to comprehend where the administration pattern is going and will be later on. As indicated by the National Bureau of Economic Research, the more youthful firms (under 5 years) are the more occupations they make paying little mind to measure. This is a significant pattern to note in light of the fact that a large number of us accepted that the main business is with enormous firms whenever as a general rule the development and opportunity is going on with youthful firms everything being equal. Pattern 4: Women are aiming high We just viewed the Sochi Olympics and you note that ladies are pulling out all the stops. In what capacity? In the ongoing Sochi Olympics, a Dutch female competitor won the most awards of any competitor at that Olympic-2 Gold and 3 silver decorations. What's more, in 2012 the U.S. had a bigger number of ladies than men taking an interest in the late spring Olympics (269 versus 261). You may recall that American ladies groups represented 56 percent of the U.S. decorations and 66 percent of the gold awards. This difficulties three legends about ladies: they don't prefer to contend, they don't care to win, and they are not cooperative individuals. Ladies are pulling out all the stops. Pattern 5: Women are turning out to be tech heads How have ladies adjusted to innovation? The exploration shows that ladies are quick adopters of innovation, especially innovation that they discover helpful, for example, cell phones, web based life, and internet shopping. Ladies additionally impact customer electronic buying. One of the electronic affiliation noticed that 70 percent of occupations by 202 will have an innovation segment. I feel that ladies adjust and use innovation and this is significant for employability. Here are a couple of models: Seventy-four percent of females utilize long range informal communication locales versus 62 percent of men. Ladies are the top clients of Instagram, Pinterest, and other internet based life on cell phones. Ladies affected $90 billion of buyer electronic buys in 2007. Ladies represent 58 percent of all out web based spending. Stay tuned for section 2 of this article for the following five patterns!
