Mittudnakanok.hu• http://www.mittudnakanok.hu/ Magunkról:

Sok kutatási eredmény és vélemény szerint jobban teljesítenek azok a vállalatok, melyeknek a vezetésében nők is helyet foglalnak. Az üzleti élet mégis megmaradt a férfiak által, a férfiak számára kreált világnak.

Arra szántuk el magukat, hogy hozzájárulunk az ezzel kapcsolatos szemléletváltáshoz. Hangsúlyozzuk, üzleti kérdésről van szó, nem pedig nőkérdésről.

Mi hárman, akik magunk is vezető nők, képző- és tanácsadó cégek tulajdonosai vagyunk, a következő célokat tűztük ki:1. Szeretnénk kedvet csinálni a témán való gondolkodáshoz,2. tudást megosztani,3. jól érezni magunkat a velünk együtt gondolkodókkal, miközben nőkről, férfiakról,  és az üzlethez való viszonyukról

tanulunk.

Mittudnakanok.hu – MIÉRT? A Financial Times szerint valószínűleg a nők jelentik a leginkább figyelmen kívül hagyott forrást az üzleti életben. Az üzleti modellek alapvető gyengesége, hogy férfiak által dominált világra konstruálták őket.Történik mindez annak ellenére, hogy:1. A nők PIACOT jelentenek.

A legtöbb piacon a nők hozzák a fogyasztási cikkekkel kapcsolatos vásárlási döntések 80%-át.

2. A nők TEHETSÉGET képviselnek.Európában az egyetemet végzettek 59%-a, a PhD fokozatot elérőknek pedig 61%-a nő. A tehetségbázis többségét nők adják.

3. A nők jelenléte összefügg a PROFITABILITÁSSAL.Kiemelkedően jobbak azoknak a vállalatoknak a pénzügyi mutatói, melyeknek a vezetésében nők is helyet foglalnak. Ezt számos kutatás támasztja alá. (Catalyst, McKinsey).

A fenti tények ellenére nem történt változás. Az üzleti élet továbbra is többnyire a férfiak számára kreált világ. A válság azonban intő jel: eljött a paradigmaváltás ideje.

Hisszük, egyensúlyra van szükség a cégek vezetésében is. Idáig az arányok eltolódtak. A 21. századi cégvezetés akkor lesz sikeres, ha harmóniára törekszik: épít a  nők és férfiak eltérő erősségeire és képességeire, döntéshozói pedig nők és férfiak együtt.

Három Királyfi Három Királylány Mozgalom

• http://haromkiralyfi.hu A Három Királyfi, Három Királylány Mozgalom célja:

hogy elősegítse a kívánt és tervezett gyermekek megszületését, és ezáltal elérje, hogy több magyar gyermek szülessen, mint ahányan meghalnak Magyarországon.

A Mozgalom indulása, története: Dr. Kopp Mária, a Semmelweis Egyetem Magatartástudományi

Intézetének vezetője 2009 júniusában indította útjára Mozgalmunkat. A Semmelweis Egyetem könyvtárában tartott kerekasztal beszélgetésen a résztvevők hangsúlyozták a fent említett téma fontosságát és megállapították, hogy további, együttes, összehangolt cselekvésre van szükség. (ld. www.selye.hu/haromkiralyfi.html)

A tudós társadalom mozgósítása mellett, a cél elérése érdekében szükségesnek tartottuk szélesebb társadalmi rétegek bevonását.

Három Királyfi Három Királylány Mozgalom témája:

A megközelítésekben kulcskérdés a „gyermekhez való jog”. Mivel a ma születő gyermekek a jövő zálogai, más szavakkal „közjószágok” (Andorka Rudolf),

hiszen ők jövőbelimunkavállalók, jövőbeli hozzájárulásuk a nemzeti jóléthez mind gyermekeseknek, mind a gyermekteleneknek jövőbeli előnyökkel jár, ezért legitim kormányzati és társadalmi cél annak elősegítése, hogy a kívánt, tervezett gyermekek megszülessenek. Meg kell keresni és meg kell szüntetni azokat az akadályokat, amelyek hátráltatják a szándékok elérését.

Ebben kulcsfontosságú: a család ÉS hivatás összeegyeztethetősége (meg kell szüntetnimagasabb végzettségű nőkkel

szembeni negatív diszkriminációt, hogy ne veszítsék el a hivatásukba fektetett erőfeszítéseiket sem, miközben megszületnek a tervezett gyermekeik)

a gyermekesek anyagi terheinek enyhítése
