If you haven’t heard of TED, this is the place you’ll want to go to launch your dream shoes. TED is an ambitious crowd sourcing experiment where you have the opportunity to launch your ideas out to a worldwide audience. The ideas you can throw out cover the range of creativity, invention, business, science and the most pressing global issues once the stage opens up in your city (they have just left London).

A picture is worth a thousand words and In Our Shoes is going for gold. Here is my handwritten picture (below) of what I believe is essential for women to advance themselves in organizations while juggling it ALL.

The TED Audition

Our pitch to change how the world does business:

establishing mini coaching circles of 6 women with one (male or female) champion at all levels in public and private sector organizations. The circles are meant to build a network pipeline for sponsorhip, empower women and ultimately create a springboard for them to advance themselves professionally. I believe establishing these coaching circles for women rank right up there with those mandatory performance reviews and should be at the core of every organization’s professional development curriculum.

 

Please share your thoughts expanding on this idea for TED and I will add it to the audition plugging you away. Have a jaw dropping idea for TED?  Give it a shot – there’s nothing to lose dear readers. As you know, your Shoe Hostess does not believe in failure. We can only change direction. Wish me luck and I look forward to hearing your comments on this topic actioning change for professional women!
