Today's Women's History Month honoree is Amanda Gorman, National Youth Poet Laureate. Amanda became the youngest inaugural poet in U.S. history when she recited her poem, "The Hill We Climb" at President Joe Biden's inauguration in 2021. A particularly inspiring moment for insight180 team member Elizabeth Doubleday: "Though I do a lot of writing, I'm forever in awe of people who can truly capture the hearts and minds of others with their words. Like so many, I first learned of Amanda Gordon when she famously delivered her "The Hill We Climb" at President Biden's inauguration in 2021. She was just 23 years old but the wisdom and poise she displayed during that performance was captivating. Her work touches on important issues and she's unafraid to speak out and speak up. I love that she, as a young Black poet, shares her words in unconventional places (MTV, White House, Super Bowl) to reach a broad audience of people whose hearts and minds are captivated by her works." —Elizabeth Doubleday Read Amanda Gorman's poem or watch her recite it, here: https://loom.ly/86dW-ks #insight180 #WomenInHistory #AmandaGorman #Inspire #Impact

To celebrate Women's History Month, we're reflecting on some of the influential women who have inspired us in our lives. This week, insight180 Art Director Bethany Howell is sharing about acclaimed graphic designer Paula Scher and the impact she's had on the design field: "Paula Scher was the first female Principal at Pentagram, a highly reputable design firm. Some of the most recognizable and iconic visual identities in the world are hers such as Shake Shack, Citibank, and Microsoft. I think every designer would love to work with her for even a day and see how her brain works and learn her process." —Bethany Howell Learn more about Paula's work and career journey from this 2020 interview with MadameArchitect.org: https://loom.ly/EKQLx3E #brandingdesign #insight180 #design #PaulaScher

It’s always fun reconnecting with past clients in their new roles. And we were delighted to do just that when one of our favorite colleagues called us from the Maryland Zoo. This time we got to help produce the Zoo’s very colorful annual report, an important tool in their fundraising efforts. Working with incredible images of the Zoo’s star residents (take a look at that chimp!), we loved working on this project.

With many companies revisiting their DEI policies as of late, we thought it helpful to share this insightful perspective from insight180 client Danielle Marshall, ICF-Certified Executive Coach and Founder of Culture Principles.
