What One Person Can Do
Sometimes it can feel like we’re powerless to make change, so this week Hello Monday brings you stories of two women who did just that. Shelley Zalis, entrepreneur and the founder of The Female Quotient, was sick and tired of being the only woman in some very powerful rooms. She turned an invitation to the World Economic Forum into an opportunity to pass the mic to more women at Davos. Gina Glantz, veteran political strategist and founder of Gender Avenger, got fed up that there were never any women on stages at conferences at places like Harvard’s Kennedy School and CES. She came up with a quick and practical approach to changing that, and it’s working. Today, host Jessi Hempel talks to this dynamic duo about their independent work and their recent collaboration together. This episode is for anyone who’s looking for a dose of hope and a call to action.
