Without the others – we are no one
I have felt like an outsider for a big part of my life. As a child it was due to my Spanish background. When I got older it was probably because of my personality ; )
Sociology became my way of understanding why most of us feel like outsiders, and how communities are so important for our existence. As humans, organisations and society.
The young generation is in front when it comes to developing our society and jobs.
The gender revolution teaches us new ways of becoming a human being.
And modern communities set leadership, creativity and us free.
I have specialized in these 3 subjects for more than 25 years. Welcome.

Millennials and Generation Z wants free communities and close personal relationships with their leaders. It means goodbye to hierarchies and bound work tasks, and a hello to desire, interest, and most importantly: Trust. By Emilia van Hauen, cultural sociologist, board member, and key-note speaker Recently when waiting to board my plane I overheard a conversation that was not meant for me. In my defense, the man was sitting less than ...
Women are still both “the second” and “the other” when it comes to management. What is archetypically linked to the feminine continues to have a lower status in our society than the archetypal masculine. But facing the challenges of our world and the statistics on our mental well-being it is clear that we need a new balance that should include all human characteristics and exclude contra-productive gender prejudices. By Emilia ...
The young men are copying their mothers career form rather than their fathers in order to escape the carrier prison. The young women are still fighting to get through the glass ceiling. Both think that companies who articulate initiatives and products specifically aimed at a particular gender are hopeless. Gen Z is releasing themselves from gender – and that demands new strategies for leadership and talent management. A translation of ...

TEDx talk: Unruly Women Have More Fun!
In 2021, I gave this TEDx talk for University St. Andrews in Scotland - which was recorded in Copenhagen due to Covid-19. It has therefore been made as a salon with the most amazing women. Join the club!
TEDx Copenhagen 2010
In 2010 I gave a TEDx talk in Copenhagen about why the Danes are such a happy people. And why trust, equality and social security creates a strong society. This is framed by the story of the big misunderstanding between my Spanish grandparents in their marriage and how Tashita from Ghana was rescued when she was accused of being a witch.

It was fantastic!
We in the management team have discussed challenges with recruitment and education of new employees. We therefore invited Emilia van Hauen to educate us about generation
Y and Z, which in a few years will take over the labour market. We got many great insights which enhanced our understanding of the younger employees – and from which we will definitely adjust our recruitment program and how we train our future employees, so both elements are a better fit.

Digital talk:
A sincere recommendation!
Emilia is an incredibly empathetic speaker with something important at heart. Her high level of professionalism combined with her bubbly and present personality made her performance go beyond the online conditions. There was a good balance between dissemination, slides and “probs” – One was captivated throughout and even though it was behind a screen she burned through with key messages about organisations,
generations and the future. Her presentation provoked reflection and a desire for action. I would strongly recommend you to invite Emilia, then you’ll go into the future more capable and with a better set of skills.

Strengthened from your presentations!
It was once again a great pleasure to see and hear you yesterday! You are a unique combination of science, practice and good examples, mixed with an engaging commitment, which shows through being interested rather than just interesting. One leaves enriched, uplifted and strengthened from your presentations – and I could see that the members did so too.

Highly relevant and exciting online lecture!

She manages to go beyond the screen with her exiting insights and points, time flew by even though it was late afternoon after a busy weekday, where the energy level isn´t at its highest. InnovationSilkeborg gives their highest
recommendations to online lectures with Emilia.
