The feminist movements were in the 70s. Today we find ourselves good 50 years later. And now? This TEDx talk will focus on what everyone of us can do to really make a change in deeply rooted gender stereotypes and why diversity is still very important to talk about. Then, how women support each other is crucial and key. Together we can, together we spark.

Disclaimer: Diversity is not only about women, diversity includes or involves people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, sexual orientations, etc. As the presenter is a woman and she feels like a woman, female equality is something she can personally relate to. Other aspects of diversity are left to speakers that know better than her. Désirée Harmuth is co-founder of Women for the Board. The association’s vision is to make female candidates visible together and thus make boards of directors and foundations more diverse. Désirée is a business economist and has an MSc in Entrepreneurship. Digital transformation, real estate, empowering women and networking are just some of her passions. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
