NOW THAT’S B-I-G!
“The period 2000-2002 will bring the single greatest change in
worldwide economic and business conditions since we came down from the trees.”
David Schneider & Grady Means, MetaCapitalism
White Collar Revolution!
The World Is Your Oyster!
DISTINCT … OR EXTINCT!
“If there is nothing very special about your work, no matter how hard you apply yourself, you won’t get noticed and that increasingly means you won’t get paid much, either.”
Michael Goldhaber, Wired
Women and new-economy
management …
The New Economy …
Shout goodbye to “command and control”!
Shout goodbye to hierarchy!
Shout goodbye to “knowing one’s place”!
“On average, women and men possess a number of different innate skills. And current trends suggest that many sectors of the
twenty-first-century economic community are going to need the natural talents of women. … Women’s facility for networking
and reaching consensus will become more and more important as companies dismantle hierarchical management structures and
emphasize egalitarian team playing.”
Helen Fisher, The First Sex: The Natural Talents of Women and How They are Changing the World
“Tomorrow belongs to women.”

The Death Knell for Ordinary:
Pursuing Difference!
“The ‘surplus society’ has a surplus of
similar companies, employing
similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, working in
similar jobs, coming up with similar
ideas, producing similar things, with
similar prices and similar quality.”

Not: “Age of the Internet”
Is: “Age of Customer Control”
“The Web enables total transparency. People with access to relevant information are beginning to
challenge any type of authority. The stupid, loyal and humble
customer, employee, patient or citizen is dead.”Kjell Nordstrom and Jonas Ridderstrale,
Funky Business

Women and Healthcare
Women are … more dissatisfied, frustrated by the way they are treated and spoken down to by physicians, seek more information, are more pressed for
time … and make 75% of health care decisions and control 2/3 of health care $
$$$ [and constitute 2/3 of health care employees].

EVEolution: The Eight Truths of Marketing to Women

EVEolution: Truth No. 1
Connecting Your Female Consumers to Each
Other Connects Them to Your Brand
“The ‘Connection Proclivity’ in women starts early. When asked,
‘How was school today?’ a girl usually tells her mother every
detail of what happened, while a boy might grunt, ‘Fine.’ ”
EVEolution
Weight Watchers International “Model”
“What if ExxonMobil or Shell dipped into their credit card database to help commuting women
interview and make a choice of car pool partners?”
“What if American Express made a concerted effort to connect up female empty-nesters
through on-line and off-line programs, geared to help women re-enter the workforce with today’s
skills?”
EVEolution
“Women don’t buy
brands. They join them.”
Faith Popcorn, EVEolution
“Honey, are you sure you have the kind of money it takes to be looking at a car like
this?”
“Excuse me, doctor, but it’s my neck that’s
in pain!”
STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY: I am a businessperson. An analyst. A pragmatist. The enormous social good of increased women’s
power is clear to me; but it is not my bailiwick. My “game” is haranguing business leaders
about my fact-based conviction that women’s increasing power – leadership skills
and purchasing power – is the strongest and most dynamic force at work in the American
economy today. Dare I say it as a long-time Palo Altan … THIS IS EVEN BIGGER THAN THE
INTERNET!

of rebellion and independence and a way of
making a living has not occurred before in history.”

I’m in charge. (Period.)
Respect my intelligence.
(It’s my life. I, too, was born with a brain.)
Forget the WHITE COAT.
Show up on time.

“A key – perhaps the key – to leadership is the effective
communication of a story.”
Howard Gardner Leading Minds: An Anatomy of Leadership

Gary Hamel, Fortune (06.00), on re-inventing a company (Exemplar #1:
