Celebrating a Rising Tide of Women

Published Categorised as Diversity Tagged ,

This International Women’s Day we’re celebrating some fantastic women who’ve supported, challenged, encouraged and inspired us three female founders at Difference Engine. We’ve been lucky enough to work with and for some formidable women. It’s impossible to name them all, so the three of us chose three women each who deserve a big-up today.

Give them a follow – you’ll soon love them as much as we do.

Katy Howell – sharp as a tack, creative, boundless energy. A true entrepreneur and a relationship building queen. She’s all about social.

Catherine Crump – passion and fairness, a committed leader with vision who can nail strategy and also deliver with excellence. She’s all about foresight and future proofing.

Helen Trim – thinking big and delivering at scale, challenging ideas and people to be their best. She’s all about data driven marketing and empowering others.

Tunde Hinton – entrepreneurial and a networking whizz, championing diversity in leadership in the housing sector.

Hela Wozniak – creative, hilarious and an ace connector.

Lydia Dumont – events expert extraordinaire, fun, fearless and the epitome of strong sisterhood.

Ciara Eastell – deep credibility in business transformation – proof that empathetic leadership delivers.

Genevieve Leveille – groundbreaking blockchain in agriculture founder and STEM leader.

Jessica Figueras – industry and charity leader, curious, mixing intellect with kickass getting shiz done.

Finally, Lyssa-Fêe Crump, a self titled GIIF obsessed marketing badass whose piece celebrating the women rocking the business world in Cornwall inspired this post.

Hit these amazing women up with a follow if you want to broaden your horizons. Also check out Katy’s awesome post on finding the courage to challenge which lists a ton of networks and groups that support women.

This International Women’s Day we’ve loved thinking about all the women that have inspired us – thanks to you all – we salute you.
