Kirsten Hall speaks at TED@StateStreet
 
Kirsten Hall, regulatory project manager within global markets at State Street, recently gave a TED Talk on her view on celebrating women in business.

In the video, Hall has a provocative question: Is it time to stop celebrating women just for being in business? Maybe, she suggests, we can wind down the idea of corporate women’s groups — and position women in business as the new normal.

WATCH AND DISCUSS: What do you think of Hall’s message? Are women unintentionally harming the fight for gender equality by segregating themselves within women’s groups? Or do think women’s groups are necessary to the cause? Share your thoughts on the video, shared on Lift IOWA’s Facebook page.
