I am so touched by all your notes & votes for THINKERS 50 - many thanks. I shared a short video on YouTube recently with photographs of a visit to the Thomas Edison/Henry Ford Homes/Museum in Florida. What an inspiring day! Edison created 14 companies, including one of the world’s largest, from a small home office. On that note, I feel we are at a similar time in history where much innovation will be needed. Interestingly, Henry Ford created jobs & customers at the same time by paying his employees a nice amount of money to afford a new Ford car. How will we identify the new Thomas Edisons, Steve Jobs & Henrietta Fords?… Watch this video for business leaders called ”Let’s Create a Modern Day Renaissance” highlighting a best investment Human Capital & a new “currency” (in addition to our current currencies)~ Kindness! Best wishes from Sandra Rupp.

Is Davos a “Debate” or a “Conversation” or Both? ~ More on The Yin & Yang of Leadership

Did you attend or watch the Davos World Economic Forum 2011 Meetings? I was very touched by the thought and commitment that the World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab, the organizers & participants put into these “debates.” Personally I like to think of them also as conversations, the feminine equivalent, but I am comfortable with a good debate if there are also next steps discussed to move forward.
I watched two sessions on the Economy and one on Unemployment, two very important topics. I have previously met a couple of the speakers. Watching the discussions reinforces my passion for sharing & implementing my 7 Step Vision/Coaching for what I call The Yin & Yang of Leadership & Investing in The Feminine Leadership Style, because I truly believe it is a large economic opportunity for all. More later from your Lady in Blue. In addition to being included in the Davos Debates 2011 Video of selected entrants (click to view my answer to The Davos Question on How Can We Create Inclusive Economic Growth), my Video Question: What are you doing specifically to Invest in Innovation & Job Creation? was also asked at Davos this year.

FAVORITE QUOTE: “Wisdom begins in wonder.” ~ SOCRATES
I am an Executive Career Coach. Inspiration for founding my company Parthenon Advisors came from Athena, the helper of heroes & heroines. Ancient Greece was the birthplace of democracy and a time of great innovations. My Answer to the Davos Question: “How Can We Drive Inclusive Economic Growth & Prosperity” has this year been chosen for the Davos Debates 2011 Video of Selected Finalists - the lady in blue placed on the cover. My Davos Debates answer (see below) is to “Invest in & Empower the Feminine Leadership Style, a 7 Step Plan” incorporating boards, banks, businesses, venture capital & local communities. My Vision/Plan has been developed with insights over 20 years coaching & placing global executives, innovators and leaders. Interestingly, I see this not only as a path to inclusive growth but also quite possibly the largest economic opportunity worldwide. I will share it now through Leadership Advisory, Speaking & Writing.
I would like to also share that I feel we need to worry about (modern day) Greece, because right now, we are all potentially Greece. And if this economy is to grow, I believe it will be saved by all of us: the masculine & feminine, male and female, Yin & Yang make a wonderful team! ~More later from Your Lady in Blue. I see a very important economic opportunity here. Many thanks to the World Economic Forum for the Davos Debates 2011. Best wishes from Sandra Rupp.

The Davos Question this year is How Can We Drive Inclusive Economic Growth & Prosperity? (when 80% of the world currently lives on less than $10 a day). My answer includes a 7 Step Plan developed over many years working with leaders. My answer is a 1 minute summary of what I believe is the largest economic opportunity worldwide. Top answers will be shared with World Leaders in late January at the World Economic Forum meetings. I am finding my video answer resonates with both men and women. Masculine & Feminine, man or woman, Yin & Yang make a wonderful team! (see a short clip here):
