“Did you know only 25% of leadership roles are held by women?” One of the leaders I had a discussion with recently shared this fact with me. 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀: → Imposter syndrome held them back, limiting their ability to believe in their capabilities. → Lack of clarity made the path to the CXO seem daunting and uncertain. → Essential skills needed for top leadership positions weren't fully developed. At some time in our leadership roles, all of us have faced this. Many still do, but these problems shouldn’t stop you from being on the path to CXO. Inspired by the discussions and our own personal experiences with women leaders, we've created a program to develop the CXO in you and we are excited to launch a book as a gift to 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 to guide future women leaders to the CXO path. This book is packed with the secrets of C-suite leadership strategies to CRUSH the CXO goals. So what are you waiting for?

It feels so good to walk into a room filled with over a hundred women business leaders. I had the opportunity to attend not one, but two women's business conferences (Michigan Business Women’s Women in Leadership Conference and Forté Foundation’s Fall MBA Women's Virtual Leadership Conference) today to hear from powerhouse women who are killing it in their careers and family lives. Some of my favorite takeaways: 🖋 People are not just trusting your map, but your compass, so you have to clearly communicate your mission, vision, and directions. 🖋 You need to speak the language of the people making decisions to make it meaningful for them 🖋 Our job as a leader is to create a safe environment for ourselves and others to show up authentically including space for feedback especially in high-performing teams 🖋 Schedule meetings with your teammates without an agenda to have human interactions and check-ins 🖋 When networking make it a goal to know 3 things that the person cares about outside of work “A leader is a person you follow to a place you wouldn't go by yourself” – Joel A Barker University of Michigan - Stephen M.

Last week one of our favourite Leaders, Sajna Rahman coordinated and hosted a Leadership, Culture & Influence event for the CBRE team. We delved into the role of Ambition for Women and how in the past it was almost a 'dirty word'. I really admired how my business partner, Kate Byrne explained how to 'move' the energy of Ambition from 'ME' to 'WE'. Turning culture into an empowerment totem for teams to present as their best selves is a true pillar of diversity. Before the event, we put together an analysis of where people are in terms of their leadership potential and their skill potential. We were interested to see that the trend amongst women in leadership is universal. The Tulle-Box research found that 71.4% of women are NOT working in the sector or career of their choice but 100% of the women surveyed said that ALL of their skills were in full utilization in their role. What does that tell us? That women apply 100% of their natural skills, talent and experience to whatever role they are in to promote team goals and corporate strategies. To see how our Power-Tulle #TB3i illuminates the deeper insights of your teams, give us a shout. We would love to spend time with your teams. Check out the highlights! #AwarePrepareReady #TB3i #Leadership #Culture #Women #CBRE #Empowerment https://lnkd.in/ejAz9dmc

“As a young CEO, how do you lead a team and subordinates who are older than you?” I received this question all the time! Even during my interview as the CEO. This was one of the meaningful topics we explored at the panel discussion on leadership during the Pharmacy Leadership Forum last Saturday. For me, the answer lies in a simple yet profound principle: understanding each person's why and motivation. Every individual brings unique strengths to the table, regardless of age. While some of the senior colleagues may take longer to embrace digital transformations, they offer invaluable technical expertise honed over years of experience. In my journey as a leader, I've learned that engaging with older employees involves more than just assigning tasks—it's about aligning their work with their personal passions and our organizational objectives. By tapping into their wealth of experience and wisdom, we can unlock incredible value and drive impactful change together. Ultimately, it's the collective strength of our team that propels us towards our goals. By recognizing and celebrating the diverse contributions of each member, we pave the way for success and fulfillment for everyone involved. 💡 #leadershipjourney #weservetogether #meaning #diversity
