I've never talked about this openly, but looking back at every business I built, every team that I've put together, there's a pattern.

The majority of the people that I've hired have been women.

Women hit their targets roughly 95% of the time, while men hit them 65% of the time.

Men, myself included, tend to set ambitious goals that feel great on a whiteboard,

then fall short in execution. I've hired more women, not by mistake, not because some corporate

policy or some sort of diversity quota that we put together. No, because of what I've observed

with my own eyes over more than two decades of

building businesses. And the single biggest proof to prove this point is that the first

collaboration, the first person I worked with was my co-founder and my co-founder is my wife, Nicole.

In this episode, I'm going to share with you what I've learned and what the data actually

says about building teams with more women in them and how made my business better

in ways I'm still discovering.

Welcome back to the $100 MBA show. I'm your host, Omar Zen Home, where I deliver practical

business lessons three times a week, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to help you start, grow,

and scale your business. I got a quick favor to ask. If this show has helped you in any way,

leave me a quick review. You could do so wherever you listen to podcasts.

This helps me and my team reach even more people who need the same no-fluff practical business

advice that you're getting from the show. It only takes a few seconds, but it makes a huge difference.

Thanks for being a part of our journey to help others on their journey.

Most people know Nicole as my wife and co-founder of the $100 MBA.

What most people don't know is that I knew Nicole as a professional long before she was my business partner.

We worked together back when we were educators.
