Today’s Women at Work have Unique Opportunities A new call to action for women and employers
Here’s a news flash: Women are poised to surpass men on the nation’s payrolls for the first time in American history. According to a recent report by the New York Times, four out of five jobs lost in the current U.S. recession belong to men—a consequence of the surge in layoffs within distressed, male-dominated industries, such as manufacturing and construction. This emerging workplace trend may ultimately be a momentous boon to women—shifting their power and influence, both at home and on the job. It also represents a new call to action for women—and employers.
Double Your Achievements By Lightening the Loa
Like a light shining through the darkness shed by so many negative reports of how so few people consider anyone other than themselves, and how a sense of community is lacking, I know from experience that that spirit is not lacking and if we give it a chance by sharing and collaborating, whether professionally or personally, it can bring us so many rewards.

In recent years, Tanzania has embarked upon the economic recovery process and is continuing to build upon and address the needs of MSMEs. Key informants from the MIT-SME Section acknowledged the current and future potential of women entrepreneurs and, although seriously under-resourced for the tasks ahead, the SME Section is enthusiastic and committed to working with the international donor community to support this target group.

Women and Men are Different: Financially Speaking
Men and women think differently, especially about money. Although both men and women are concerned about security; many women think about what money represents, where men tend to think of what money can buy. There is no right or wrong, we just think differently. Money has no gender, anyone, man or woman can earn, spend, save or invest it. The results of a survey of 1,000 spouses conducted for Money Magazine, found men and women had dramatically different ideas about who does what with the family finances and what is important to their partners. 27% of men believe their wives think having the right investments is very important. Yet nearly half of the women surveyed say it is important. 45% of men say that having cash for emergencies is very important to their spouse, when in reality 67% of women believe it's crucial.
