The Difference Between Men and Women
Gender has a tremendous impact on how a brand is perceived as well as how it’s purchased. There are numerous gender-related differences including perceptions, attitudes, priorities and communication styles.

1.0 Overview: Gender Entrepreneurship and Competitiveness in Africa, 2007
An appreciation of gender issues is important when considering strategies to improve Africa’s competitiveness in the world and ways to promote private-sector development.There are three main reasons why gender matters.
13.0 Business environment issues: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
The Tanzanian government is in the early stages of reviewing the regulatory and operating environment for its SMEs. According to the UDEC report (2002), most existing business policies and regulations were set up with large businesses in mind and are inappropriate for smaller enterprises. It also reported that existing policies are either gender blind or gender insensitive and thus fail to support women entrepreneurs in growth sectors.
4.2.2 Training provision for women
The identification of women's training needs has often been flawed because "women are rarely treated as knowing what they need" (ibid: 30). The available evidence tends to show that poor women in most developing countries are usually most interested in skills training that meets their own immediate 'practical gender needs' as opposed to longer term, "strategic gender needs" that directly tackle the basic underlying causes of female subordination (see Moser, 1989).

OFCCP Compliance: Understanding the OFCCP’s new ruling on Internet Applicants
OFCCP Ruling at a Glance The Internet Applicant final rule, issued by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), addresses recordkeeping by Federal contractors and subcontractors about the Internet hiring process and the solicitation of race, gender, and ethnicity of "Internet Applicants." As of February 6, 2006, contractors must keep records in compliance with these new OFCCP regulations.
EEO-1 Changes: Revisions to the EEOC’s Employer Information Report
The EEO-1 Report at a Glance The Employer Information Report (EEO-1) classifies an organization’s employees by job category and then by ethnicity, race, and gender. Due every September, the EEO-1 is submitted to the EEOC and the Department of Labor, Office of Federal Contractor Compliance Programs (OFCCP). Beginning September 30, 2007, employers must use the newly revised EEO-1 Report.

Finish Strong
Georgene Johnson got to the starting line of a weekend race 15 minutes early. It was a mistake in timing that became a defining moment in her life. The 42-year-old secretary had registered to run in a 10 kilometer/ 6.2 mile race that Sunday. The race started at 8:45 a.m. There was also a marathon scheduled to begin 15 minutes earlier. Both races used the same starting line.

Together We Can
After the events of September 11th, we saw individuals throughout the United States and the world come together as one - red, white, and blue. The differences in our personalities, race, gender, nationality, religious beliefs, etc. still existed but our very diversity became a way to show the terrorists that we are all different in many ways but still unite as one - red, white, and blue! Wouldn't it be nice if we could harness that same energy in our companies so that we worked together as one (but without the tragedy)? You can!!!

Sales and emotional intelligence
The "gender" discussion highlighted by my Sell like a Woman project, articles and other research leads people to believe that women are doing things men cannot because of gender. And this is causing sighing and forelock tugging in some male circles. "Not another feminist on her soap box" or "all men are useless" I hear some say.
Understanding Diversity in the Workplace
As a business owner, consultant, and entrepreneur I have been told by many small business owners that "diversity" is really only applicable to larger businesses. When asked what diversity means to them (the small business owner), many respond it is about differences in race or gender. It is not about making the workplace a better place in which to work, but more about following the law.
