Description

Guillermina Benavides and Nancy Giordano discuss the need to change the way we change...
Guillermina Benavides Rincón is a Professor with a master’s degree in strategic foresight at the School of Government and Public Transformation at Tecnológico de Monterrey, and a PhD from the University of Texas at Arlington. Beyond the accomplishments though, what’s mind-blowing is that she started her final dissertation with no children, and by the end had four(!), having been surprised with triplets during her studies.
Instead of this slowing her down, and alongside teaching students, she's been advising Federal, State and Local Governments on the need for public policy, economics and social development policies to evolve alongside the rapid pace at which women and their roles in family systems are changing within Mexico. Since most of the policies are developed by men with little or no real understanding of the current + future opportunities that can be made possible for women, Guillermina is a champion and important advocate in her country for changing the way we change.
