It's #IWD2024, and I couldn't let the day go without a quick post about #InvestInWomen - the UN theme for this year. This year I challenge you (and me) to invest time in supporting the women around you. I challenge businesses, large and small, to invest financially in their female staff (the gender pay gap is, I believe, still live and kicking). I challenge you (and me) to invest time in reading relevant books to support us as we help ourselves and others - if you've not read it yet, please read The Authority Gap by Mary Ann Sieghart, the chapters at the end give tips we can all learn from. I'm going to be reading Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez, which people have recommended. I'll also be re-reading How Women Rise by Sally Helgesen. I'll leave you with one of my favourite #IWD campaigns, it makes me smile each time I watch it - the Ford Men's Only Edition... enjoy (although ignore some of the comments, they made me more than a little cross at times)... more info in the comments, including a list of women who developed groundbreaking tech in the automotive industry. https://lnkd.in/eQSCWNgM

Icons don't just shape history; they redefine it.✨ Iron Dames,an all female racing team, are doing just that. Just a few days ago, Iron Dames announced their iconic entry into FRECA making history as the first-ever all female line-up to be joining the series.🏎️ This groundbreaking move not only challenges the status quo, but also serves as a beacon of inspiration for young women everywhere. It's a reminder that when we dare to defy expectations, we begin to carve our own path. We begin to rewrite history and empower others to do the same. Sometimes that can be easier said than done. In fact, I know firsthand how terrifying it can be to take that risk and step outside of your comfort zone. Seven months ago, when I started Dare To Be Iconic, LLC, it was daunting to have my heart on display. But, I'm here to tell you, it’s been worth every moment of uncertainty. When you take that leap, you discover what you're truly capable of and also inspire others to follow in your footsteps. You become an icon. So let this be your reminder: dream big, be bold, and #daretobeiconic. 💜 ————————————————————————— Hi! I’m Amanda, CEO and Founder of Dare To Be Iconic, LLC and a professional fangirl, where I empower you to embrace your iconic self and dare you to embrace your inner fangirl.#womenempowerment #womeninmotorsport Start your #daretobeiconic journey now by clicking the link in the comments 👇 👀

In the late 90s, during my 9th-grade days, my school commute was a 2 km walk from home to the highway, where we'd catch our bus. One morning, around 8 am, a remarkable sight caught our attention—a woman cruising by on her Royal Enfield motorcycle. Clad in a light blue jeans, a white t-shirt, and a half-mask helmet, she exuded confidence and fearlessness. In an era when female riders were a rare sight, her presence was groundbreaking. Her daily ride past us left a lasting impression, challenging stereotypes and defying cultural norms. She embodied courage, independence, and a pioneering spirit, inspiring us all with her daring choice to ride. Even today, her image remains vivid in my memory, a reminder that breaking barriers and pursuing your passion is always worth it, regardless of the challenges or societal expectations. Her story is a testament to the power of determination and the impact one person's actions can have on others. It's a reminder of the progress we've made and the journey ahead—to create a world where seeing a woman riding a motorcycle is not a rare sight but a normal occurrence. This change isn't just about building skills; it's about shifting mindsets and breaking down barriers. It's about creating a society where women are empowered to pursue their passions, regardless of societal expectations. To all the women riders out there, your courage and determination are changing the world, one ride at a time. Your presence on the road is a symbol of progress and a testament to the power of breaking stereotypes. Here's to seeing more women on motorcycles, rewriting the norms, and inspiring future generations. #motorcycles #motomentor #leaders #culturenorms #ridetolive #breakingbarriers

BMW has changed its logos to pride flags... 🏳️🌈 But ONLY on its Western accounts. Meanwhile, its accounts in the Middle East remain the same. The Daily Wire writes: "Critics quickly pointed out that if BMW as a corporation was serious about solidarity rather than just capitalizing on the market share driven by virtue signalling, the pride-themed logo would be on full display, especially in places where it was not culturally accepted." Is this corporate virtue signalling or is BMW playing its cards correctly here? _____ ♻️ Repost so we can start a dialogue. 👉 Follow me for tips on building your brand. 📈 Click the link in my bio to learn more.

🌟 Happy International Women's Day! 🌟 As we honor the incredible achievements and contributions of women around the world, I'd like to share a podcast episode that resonated deeply with me. Simon Sinek's insightful interview with Danica Patrick sheds light on her extraordinary and defying career as a race car driver. This International Women's Day, let's reflect on the significance of defying traditional gender roles, whether it's in male-dominated professions, sports, or leadership positions. Breaking barriers not only empowers individuals but propels society towards balance and inclusivity. Personally, I've been fortunate to cross paths with inspiring women throughout my life—be it in the workplace, within my family (my lovely wife), or among friends. Their resilience, determination, and unique perspectives have profoundly influenced me as an individual. Today, I celebrate them and the countless other women who continue to shape our world. Let's recognize the incredible progress we've made — the delta of positive change. Yet, as we mark this day, it's crucial to focus on the road ahead. We have the power to drive further improvements and bring so much more to benefit humanity as a whole. Together, let's champion diversity, amplify voices, and create a world where every individual, regardless of anything, has the opportunity to thrive. Happy International Women's Day! 🚺💪 #IWD2024 #BalanceForBetter #BreakingBarriers #Equality #InternationalWomensDay https://lnkd.in/dEnXnQHE

🚗 The automotive sector has been traditionally a male-dominated field. However, today, we want to spotlight on the invaluable contributions of women to this industry. Science and innovation benefit from diversity, and women play a crucial role in driving progress forward. 👩🔬 One of the hot topics regarding innovation in this field are autonomous cars, and besides the technology developed, the interior of these cars is a critical point in their development. Regarding this aspect, we want to highlight the role of Helene Rother. She was an automotive designer who defied gender norms back in the 40s. Her work shattered stereotypes and paved the way to a new generation of car interiors, which will once again be redefined in the upcoming years, hopefully with the participation of visionary women like she was. 🎉 To commemorate this day, we want to celebrate the achievements of women and girls not only in the automotive industry, but overall in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Their dedication will shape the future of automotive innovation and inspire others to pursue their dream, making a positive change in the world! 🚀

Author of Change the Game - Founder and Leader of the Automotive 30% Club - Hon FIMI - Vice President of The IMI - Vice President Automotive Leadership Network - CEO Gaia Innovation Ltd
I’m looking forward to this important discussion. We have a diverse gender-balanced customer base, so it makes sense that if we want to serve them well, we should be a diverse gender-balanced industry. We need customers to swiftly adopt a new technology, so we need to effectively communicate to both women and men about the change. Women report how they find car adverts boring, there is too much jargon without explanation, and that dealer staff speak only to their male partners, or send correspondence to them addressed to “Mr.”
🎉 WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE FOUR FABULOUS PANELLISTS WHO WILL DISCUSS "INCLUSION AND THE FEMALE CUSTOMER": Nicole Melillo Shaw MD at Volvo Car UK, Stuart Mustoe CEO at TrustFord, Erin Baker Editorial Director at Auto Trader UK and Michelle Breffitt Co Founder of Women Drive Electric! 🎉 This panel of automotive leaders and influencers will appear at our Automotive 30% Club member conference on May 16th, and will explore the premise that gender-balanced businesses with inclusive cultures will include and serve the female customer better, because they will not automatically default to the male version of a customer. Women are predicted to become the majority vehicle purchasers in the near future, and will play a critical role in the transition to electric vehicles. The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) is the Partner Sponsor of the Automotive 30% Club #FocusOn30by30 #ChangeTheGame #WinningGenderBalancedBusiness
