This #WomensHistoryMonth, we’re highlighting the stories and achievements of our female leaders and connectors. Denise Bakar, MA, MBA shares her inspiration and lessons learned from her career in #transportation. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐔.𝐒. 𝐃𝐎𝐓 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞? I joined the U.S. Department of Transportation and HASS COE a little more than a year ago and I am responsible for leading strategic communications and outreach externally and internally. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫? I think adaptability is key. We have so many different programs, initiatives, and collaborations tackling highly automated systems safety across all corners of the transportation system, in close partnership with the U.S. DOT Operating Administrations. It’s critical to remain flexible and understand the various factors and perspectives in order to navigate change effectively. Equally important is having a strong bias for action – not letting curveballs or redirections slow us down! 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮? Safety is the driver behind everything we do. Delivering the world’s leading transportation system requires ensuring our systems, networks, and infrastructure are safe. Highly automated transportation systems hold extraordinary promise, and enabling technologies fueling automation are exponential in nature. When it comes to advancing the safe and responsible integration of automation across the entire transportation system, proactive and nimble collaboration is essential – not only across modes, but also across public and private entities – so we can foster an innovation ecosystem based on open data and shared insights to advance our safety mission together. 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? I must give credit to my work with the Federal Highway Administration several years ago, when I led communications for the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center Saxton Lab and CARMA Program. We had a great team and leadership who really inspired me to make a mark in this space where communications and stakeholder engagement is so crucial. From there, I joined Deloitte where I led communications and branding projects for tech companies invested in autonomous mobility and continued to exercise my leadership skills. I’m grateful for my previous experiences with U.S. DOT and industry, as they’ve provided me with critical knowledge, skills, and relationships that I continue to leverage today. 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐲 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰. I’m fluent in Turkish! Also, I’m a rising pickleball champ (as soon as I can figure out how to get the ball over the net). :)

Many thanks, Erin Jewell, for sharing insights into the importance of sharing goals and self reflection while leading high performance teams. It's so important to speak up and advocate for sharing goals together as a team. Watch the video and read the accompanying blog! #letskatalyze #highperformanceteammanagement #leadership

It is undeniable that Gen Z stands out as a distinct generation - also when it comes to their perspective on mobility. 🚌 A recent study by McKinsey & Company found out: 💡 43% of Generation Z individuals have expressed intentions to utilize public transport more frequently. Private vehicles are still very popular, but mobility is increasingly multimodal among younger generations in Europe. They are less likely to use private cars and plan to increase their use of public transit and micromobility. Individuality is one of the most important values of this generation. That’s why at Axon Vibe, we believe that this is the right moment to change the future of mobility by: ✔️ providing personalized mobility consulting in real-time and showcasing the fastest, easiest and most efficient connections that are consistent with the preferences of each traveler / commuter ✔️ motivating people to adapt more sustainable, more efficient travel habits by offering reward programs ✔️ making mobility more sustainable and more convenient by reducing traffic jams, bottlenecks and overloaded public service vehicles How we do it? Stay tuned – I’ll be telling you in the next couple of weeks. Find out more about the research here: https://lnkd.in/eNnztmiN #futureofmobility #genz #mobility

Do you want to spend your Friday evening with your colleagues? Well, sometimes I do. One year ago, we introduced the concept of local communities at BearingPoint within our Service Line Customer & Growth. After a long period of a remote-only work setting, these micro-communities aimed to create bonds that extend beyond project collaboration and deadlines, fostering a sense of belonging and camaraderie. And, indeed, after one year three key benefits became apparent: 🤝 Teambuilding: Our communities provide a platform for team members to bond over shared interests and hobbies, strengthening relationships and trust among colleagues. Inside and outside the office. 🌐 Connecting across projects: These communities break down silos between teams and projects, allowing for cross-pollination of ideas and experiences, leading to innovation and improved collaboration on work-related tasks. 🎉 Fun: In the end, our local communities are also about having a good time. Offering opportunities for our team members to unwind, relax, and have fun together, fostering a positive and vibrant work culture. In our C&G Hamburg community for example, we've been kayaking, visited a Christmas market and meet regularly for extended lunch breaks. Or, as we did yesterday for the second time already, conducted our own annual "Kohlfahrt" - a concept that definitely doesn't translate into English 😉 Bringing such a concept to life always demands people committed to "just do it". Hence, I'm super grateful for my colleagues Charlotte Kirsch, Lukas Butz & Niklas Jensen who invest their time and effort together with me, to develop our Hamburg community. And, obviously, Marcel Tietjen who, as our Service Line Lead, encourages and supports us to make these kind of things happen. #TogetherWeAreMoreThanBusiness #customerandgrowth #officeculture
