Session: Leader, Tell Your Story
From the classroom to the boardroom, our world is hungry for emerging courageous and authentic leaders. This type of empathetic leader is necessary to our vision for an inclusive, diverse, and progressive future. Too often, potential leaders are discouraged from stepping up because they imagine a divide that exists between them and current leaders - a veritable “haves and have-nots”. That divide is created and furthered by the image that leaders are masculine, invulnerable, and unafraid, that they are not “like me”. Through sharing real stories and asking powerful questions, I invite tomorrow’s leaders to see the humanity in those who came before them - and the magic within them - inspiring them to see themselves in our future. The giants before us- and those we will be.Key Takeaways
- The importance of expanding our view of leadership
- The importance of storytelling in our culture
- The exponential impact we can make if we are willing to be vulnerable
