Idea Makers: 15 Fearless Female Entrepreneurs
Autor Lowey Bundy Sicholen Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 mar 2024 – vârsta ani
Idea Makers shares the incredible stories of 15 women who changed the world through their entrepreneurship. Author Lowey Bundy Sichol presents five industries that women are leading in recent years: food, fashion and clothing, health and beauty, science and technology, and education.
Jenn Hyman brought couture fashion to everyday women with her idea to Rent the Runway. Morgan DeBaun supports Black journalists through Blavity. And Sandra Oh Lin is inspiring kids everywhere with KiwiCo activity boxes.
Readers learn about how the women featured risked their early careers, gave up their salaries, and sometimes even went against the approval of their families to follow their passions and start their own businesses. Today, these women are modern leaders worth billions of dollars and employing tens of thousands of individuals.
Young women today are embracing innovation and idea making, and the women profiled in Idea Makers will show them how that can change the world.

Recenzii
“Informative and inspiring, Idea Makers tells the transformational stories of 15 amazing women entrepreneurs. Lowey Sichol skillfully brings each of those stories to life with lessons of creativity, perseverance, and passion.” —Kevin Lane Keller, E. B. Osborn Professor of Marketing, Dartmouth College
“This book is amazing! It is full of empowering stories that are sure to inspire a new generation of creative thinkers and future entrepreneurs. I was delighted to learn the captivating histories behind some of the world’s most well-known brands. Readers are going to love it too!” —Todd Burleson, 2016 Librarian of the Year, School Library Journal
“Idea Makers: 15 Fearless Female Entrepreneurs leads with the notion that in growing the entrepreneurs of the future, representation matters. As many of us in the corporate world seek to build equity and diversity in our teams, we see right away that perhaps the boldest pathway we can create to diversity in our future business leaders, is to engage in these discussions with our kids. Lowey Sichol focuses on stories children and parents can relate to together, and increases the representation of the examples of success and failures that we can all learn from. A great read!” —Suzanne Schaefer, Vice President, Global Head of Experienced Talent Recruiting, Bain & Company
“Lowey’s book is written with kids in mind—curious, creative, and ambitious kids. Her writing style is clear and easy for younger kids to follow but doesn’t skimp on the complex stories of these women and their businesses.” —Rebecca Burstein, Head of Brand Marketing and Creative Services, Bentley University; Founder and Principal, Burst Marketing Strategy
“It’s rare to find books that capture the attention of older and young readers alike, but Lowey Sichol has done it again. My son and I read Idea Makers together and were inspired by the narratives that Lowey so deftly crafted.” —Karen Loggia, Director of Marketing and Communications, Tension Corporation
