Tip of the Week # 6

Hats off to Janet Deatherage at Loyola for creating the “One Worthy Woman” program. She says, “leadership is about inspiring others to do more and be more.” Women of the World knows that collaboration is the key to creating more women leaders locally and globally.

This week's Tip of the Week is a quick one. Women leaders are likely to be more empathetic, flexible and inclusive. Take some time to inspire someone today.

Tip of the Week # 5

Hello Women of the World Supporters!

These days, it's hard to ignore news of the recession and how it affects businesses. Each week we are confronted with news of heightened unemployment numbers, lower retail sales and threats to all businesses. But thanks to a few good women, we've collected a few tips on building wealth in an economic downturn.

This week's Tip of the Week comes from contributors who participated in our last event From Finance to Empowerment & Innovation. These Women of the World would like to share with you their expert opinions on accumulating wealth in a tough economy.
