So you think you don't have influence? Think again.
This clip covers one of my favourite takes on the reality of influence: We all have it. Sometimes, we even unconsciously influence people in the wrong direction, without knowing it. But influencing people against our own agendas is not the same as being without influence. It just feels like it is...
Gender equity is a tricky topic. Leaders know the conversation is important, but healthy discussion can be mired by political correctness, knee jerk responses or a hesitancy to engage at all.
We need to shift the focus from women, to the workforce, without blaming or ostracising men in the process.
In this interview, the critical role leaders play in shifting our systems, and what we can each do individually, and collectively, to shift the dial on gender equity once and for all.
What does a conversation between two communication enthusiasts sound like?
Full!
Add to the agenda the specific ways men and women communicate and you get an extra level of nuance to play with.
This is what happened when I was interviewed by the delightful Christina Canters on her podcast Stand Out Get Noticed.
During our discussion, we delved into the obstacles that women encounter in the workplace particularly from a communication perspective.
What happens when you put two passionate, curious, and accomplished women together on a podcast… who happen to be long-term friends?
All of it happens!
Being interviewed by my good friend and founder of the Board Coaching Institute, Sally Parrish, was a rare treat. Given our work together over the years it made for a raw, honest and surprising conversation about gender equality and the concepts in my new book, The Gender Penalty. She pulls no punches in her interviews!
I know IWD has been and gone, but the need for the focus still remains.
Hence I’m sharing a recording of a fireside chat I had the privilege to be a part of, on IWD this year.
Lead by the inimitable and always delightful, Belinda Fry from Metcash, we had a brilliant chat about all things women at work.
Kerrie Phipps wrote a book called 'Do talk to strangers'.
I love this so much. As a keen connector of human folk, I love chatting with strangers and leaving as friends.
This podcast interview was no different. I think we could have talked for hours, but don't worry, we didn't! 😜
But we did have a lovely chat about confidence, connection and continuous learning. Have a listen if this is up your alley.
Recently, I had an amazing interview with Lindsey Leigh Hobson in her first ever Evolution Training session. As leaders, managers and collaborators in the L&D space, we need to have difficult conversations... Whether we like it or not. From sharing uncomfortable, unpopular and sensitive messages, to digging into what someone actually needs when they insist on more training - the way we navigate critical conversations ultimately affects our overall impact on the business. In this interview, we revealed how to turn difficult, awkward and uncomfortable conversations into meaningful, measured and impactful results.
