𝘿𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮, 2024 was truly the year of our Leadership: Redefined movement, reaching over 15 million people globally. Every story shared, every connection made, and every voice amplified brought us closer to a future where leadership reflects the true diversity of talent, vision, and potential in our world. This ripple effect culminated in a defining moment: bringing over 800 leaders together in Vienna’s iconic City Hall. There, we sparked bold conversations, inspired action, and set a transformative course for the future. Together, we pledged to make 1 million female leaders visible by 2030—a vision grounded in the belief that equality is not just an ideal but a necessity for progress. Now, we are ready to close this chapter, preparing to step aside as CEOs, passing the torch to Olena Kondratenko and Lisa Ambros, who will lead this movement into its next phase with passion and purpose. Leadership isn’t just a role; it’s a legacy, and we are proud to entrust it to such capable hands. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Here’s to a new era of leaders! 🩵 with love, 𝗠𝗮𝗵𝗱𝗶𝘀 & 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝗷𝗮

📺✨ We're all set for the holidays! Here's a watchlist for all the entertainment junkies out there, with all the TV shows that we're loving 🤭 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 - 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗳𝗹𝗶𝘅 "Royal drama", "history", "spine-tingling moments"—yes, please! The Crown follows the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, full of palace intrigues, power struggles, and the occasional scandal (because who doesn't love a royal mess?). 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 - 𝗠𝗮𝘅 If you love family drama with a side of power-hungry billionaire chaos, Succession is your new obsession. The Roy family is a tangled web of dysfunctional dynasties, where boardroom battles get way juicier than anything you’ll see at Thanksgiving dinner. 𝗦𝗲𝘅 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆 - 𝗠𝗮𝘅 No one does fashion, friendship, and romantic drama quite like Carrie Bradshaw and her fabulous squad. Sex and the City serves up all the high heels, hot gossip, and iconic one-liners that’ll make you wonder, “Am I more of a Carrie or a Samantha?” 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 - 𝗠𝗮𝘅 This quirky gem follows Sam, a woman who’s trying to find her place in a small town while dealing with grief, identity, and unexpected friendships. Expect heartfelt moments with a side of very dry humor. Definitely a hug-in-TV-form situation. 𝗚𝗶𝗻𝗻𝘆 & 𝗚𝗲𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗮 - 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗳𝗹𝗶𝘅 If you’re into mother-daughter drama with a side of secrets and sass, this one's for you. Ginny and her complicated, fabulous mother Georgia bring the kind of messiness you can’t help but binge-watch in one sitting. 𝗘𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀 - 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗳𝗹𝗶𝘅 Do you dream of croissants, Parisian romance, and making questionable life choices in the name of "adventure"? Emily in Paris is your passport to all things chic, dramatic, and very French. Trust me, you’ll want to book that flight to Paris... just don’t expect to actually be as stylish as Emily. 𝗞𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘃𝗲 - 𝗠𝗮𝘅 If you like your crime thrillers served with a side of dark humor and femme fatales, Killing Eve is a wild ride. Watch as the cat-and-mouse game between a skilled assassin and a clever spy gets weirder and way more intense with every episode. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝘁𝘂𝘀 - 𝗠𝗮𝘅 Ready for some luxury and a whole lot of chaos? This anthology series about the rich and the wrecked at a fancy resort will have you cringing, laughing, and questioning your vacation plans all at once. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝘀 𝗨𝘀 - 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 A total tearjerker that’s all about family, love, and life’s messy moments. This Is Us will make you cry, smile, and wonder how one show can pack in so many heartwarming twists and turns. 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗱 - 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗳𝗹𝗶𝘅 If you’re into gritty, inspiring, and totally binge-worthy stories, Maid is a must-watch. Follow the journey of a young woman escaping an abusive relationship while navigating the ups and downs of single motherhood—and a surprising amount of housekeeping drama. It's raw, it's real, and it's emotional. Add your favourites below!📝

🔚💙 As we're wrapping up for the year, we've got some workplace highlights for women worldwide in 2024 for you. Let's celebrate all the women that worked hard in the past year in their careers, families, and on themselves. 🔸 Canada passed the Equal Pay Transparency Act in 2024, requiring all employers to disclose salaries and gender pay gaps publicly. This initiative seeks to eliminate systemic wage discrimination and promote equity in the workplace. 🔸 The French government expanded parental leave policies in 2024, providing equal paid leave to both mothers and fathers. This policy is designed to balance caregiving responsibilities and reduce workplace discrimination against women. 🔸 Kenya amended its Constitution to implement the "Two-Thirds Gender Rule" for Parliament, ensuring that no more than two-thirds of elected representatives are of the same gender. This measure is aimed at increasing women's political participation. 🔸 In 2024, Japan enacted the Gender Equality Advancement Law, which mandates that companies with over 300 employees achieve a 50% female representation target in management by 2030. The law also provides subsidies to companies making significant progress toward this goal. 🔸 Germany introduced a law in 2024 requiring publicly traded companies to have at least 30% of supervisory board seats filled by women. This builds on previous legislation that has driven a steady increase in female representation in corporate leadership roles. Cheers to all the breakthroughs that we made together, what a year!🥂
