Medley

Our next Medley Moments is a live conversation I have been looking forward to with Lindsay LoBue, Chief Operating Officer of The Carlyle Group.   Lindsay and I have known each other for many years, and it was great to reconnect during Black History Month earlier this year. Lindsay’s career has taken her from over 20 years at Goldman Sachs, to launching Greenback Labs to support entrepreneurs, to her current role at Carlyle. What stands out about her journey is how she has shaped her career, not necessarily following a linear path but instead defining for herself, what it means to lead.   In our conversation, we’ll dive into her leadership and career journey–what’s surprised her, how she’s redefining the role of COO at Carlyle, and what advice she would offer to the next generation of leaders.   This conversation will be filled with insights on leadership, growth, and paying it forward in the workplace. RSVP below to join us live on October 30 at 1:30PM ET.

For our next Medley Moments, I’m thrilled to announce a special conversation with my Co-Founder and Medley's CEO, Jordan Taylor. Join us next Monday, September 23 at 2:30pm ET as we sit down to reflect on the big changes happening at Medley and how Jordan is navigating this exciting chapter. Since our Medley Moments together last year, Medley has gone through a period of rapid growth, as we’ve expanded our reach with incredible enterprise partners. Jordan will share more about this growth and how we’re evolving at Medley to meet the moment. On a personal note, I’m looking forward to discussing with Jordan how she has adapted her leadership style to take on these new opportunities. This is going to be a conversation filled with insights on growth, leadership, and change, and I hope you’ll join us. RSVP below to be a part of the discussion, and let us know - what would you like to hear more about from Jordan?

Medley Moments is back this month, and I'm thrilled to sit down with a leader I greatly admire, Sonia L. Coleman. As the Chief Human Resources Officer at The Walt Disney Company, Sonia is celebrated for her empathetic and insightful leadership style. Her impact can be felt across all of Disney’s businesses. But what truly stands out about Sonia's journey is her personal story of resilience, dedication, and innate passion to help others reach their full potential. Her career path has been a testament to her commitment to mentorship, diversity, and inclusion - values she continues to champion at Disney. Her story is not about climbing the corporate ladder; it's about lifting others as she ascends, inspiring countless individuals along the way. I have had the privilege to hear Sonia’s story - and I am excited for you to as well. Join us next Wednesday, August 28th at 3:45PM ET to hear more about Sonia's incredible journey, insights on leadership, and the positive changes she's driving within the organization.

As we close out the first half of the year, Charter reached out to top executives and thinkers about their predictions for the second half of 2024. Here's what some of them had to say: "The uncertainty we see—from geopolitical tensions to the upcoming US election—presents an opportunity for organizations and leaders to demonstrate and deepen resilience, steadfastness, and comfort with ambiguity." - Edith Cooper, co-founder of Medley and board director of PepsiCo and Amazon "Election season this fall is going to dominate the news and people's mental and emotional capacity in the US and, whether we want it to or not, spill over into the workplace." - Brian Elliott, co-founder of Slack Future Forum and Charter senior advisor "GenAI is transforming how we work while supercharging business growth. The key to leveraging AI effectively is a winning talent strategy, not just a tech strategy." - Jacqui Canney, CPO of ServiceNow For more insights from these leaders, as well as Adrianne C. Smith, Helen Lee Kupp, Michael Seckler, Lisa K. Simon, and Aneesh Raman, read the full roundup on our website: https://lnkd.in/gkYJbYfG
