Net4tec | Podcast for more Diversity & Inclusion in STEM & digital business net4tec podcast

"There were always people saying to women: you have to behave like this. This limited women in their view of what they think they can aspire to. I think that has changed a lot."

In this episode Moni talked to Sara Rapsch - she is a business trainer, coach and mentor, also known as the "Chief Happiness Officer" where ever she goes. Besides her mission to humanize business and to help people to grow and glow, she says that it is important to have role models for a more diverse and inclusive world. They encourage other women to show their strengths, uniqueness and authenticity - and that they can be successfull in what they are doing.

You don't have to be the better man - you can be yourself - and that's changing our society.

"There's actually a lot of things on the small scale that I have, that I do." - Diana Jehle answered, when Moni asked, what she does to empower other women in sales. 

Growing up in a tiny village in Germany, Diana was curious about the world itself. As she constantly moved out of her comfort zone she started a sales job at a big global organization - without ever thinking about it before. Is sales too "aggressive" for women? Is it really "too male dominated"?

In this episode Diana tells Moni how starting in a global organization changed her life, how you can build the best soft skills growing up in a tiny village, that helps you in global companies - and also how she REALLY empowers other women in sales business - in little steps but with a great impact!

"Help and inspire with creativity, honesty and trust to learn and grow forever." - this is what Christine Koch told me about her philosophy in our interview.

Christine has an interesting life and career path - but her interest in Diversity & Inclusion relevant topics was always there. So when she left her past employer Microsoft, she studied DEI at a university.

As Diversity & Inclusion is on a rise right now, she tells me about the positive aspects on working on one's own unconscious bias, trainings and how we can learn to be even "more diverse" and to keep our focus on BELONGING.

"Wir sind produktiver denn je, arbeiten jedoch immer noch so viel wie damals. Dabei würde weniger Arbeit, zu mehr Diversity beitragen." 

Dr. Olga Lange ist Anwendungs-/Softwareberaterin bei Bosch. Neben ihrer Wissbegierigkeit und dem großen Interesse, sich immer weiterzuentwickeln, hat sie einiger sehr interessante Ansichten zum Thema Diversity & Inclusion. 

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit ihr darüber, wie sie - sehr einfach - zu mehr Diversity & Inclusion im Alltag beiträgt, auf was sie genau achtet, warum sie Island in Sachen DEI als Vorbild nimmt und der Meinung ist, dass wir uns von diesem Land sehr viel abschauen können. Des Weiteren sprechen wie viel über Arbeit & Produktivität - und warum weniger arbeiten, zu mehr Diversity führen könnte!

"I would never say that I made a wrong decision - because every decision was responsible for having a bright future." Markus Jolic, told me in his interview.

Markus is a very interesting guy - besides his mindblowing CV (he made it from a cook to an army guy and then to an IT Specialist and Sales Leader), he has a great affinity for a diverse world. He loves people with rich backgrounds and once told me, he never regrets that he always recruited people with different backgrounds, ages and identities.

In this podcast he told me about his diverse career, different people he met and worked with and why diverse teams have a bright future.

"You have to create your own wave - and then ride your own wave" - that's what Paula told me in the interview first. In my opinion, that's one of the most powerful quotes I heard for a long time.

As a technology lover and global citizen, working in a IT world and a "male driven" branche like automotive, Paula works hard to empower others - women AND men. In her opinion, Diversity is state of the art, and only it's only possible to change the world together.

In this episode she explains, which lessons she learned in the automotive industry, what she recommends to contribute to a more diverse and inclusive world. She also tells me what future generations need to change: to speak up, take their own journeys, break the rules and to break unconscious biases.
