#142 Jacqueline Chow - Being Brave is a Choice
Friday Feb 23, 2024
Friday Feb 23, 2024
Jacqueline Chow is intensely curious and always has a plan. Key to her success has been the willingness and integrity to share the plan with those around her! Together we discuss the role great sponsors played in her career by expertly guiding her to stay close to where the economic value was created in business. She shares the deeply personal experience of working for a leader where the “chemistry” was off and how after trying everything she could to “fix” things, it felt silly to stay any longer. This experience took 18 months to recover from. As Jacq said, we join an organisation and leave an individual. We discuss what inspires her, and what she looks for when recruiting a CEO. Jacq is a non-executive director of Boral, Charter Hall, Coles Group and nib holdings. She has over twenty-years operational experience running large, blue-chip multinationals, including Fonterra, Arnotts & Kellogs across Asia Pacific, the US and Latin America. A beautiful conversation about following whatever you are intensely curious about.

#141 Dr John Izzo - Watch where the puck is going
Friday Feb 16, 2024
Friday Feb 16, 2024
Hurt people hurt people. Everything in this conversation focuses on being whole, bringing the whole person to work, integrating the masculine and feminine. Dr John , a best-selling author and keynote speaker who has advised over 800 global companies invites us to lead a certain way. We discuss toxic masculinity and how the messages of being strong, stoic and not asking for help is at the core of male wellbeing (or not). We discuss how the masculine paradigm has dominated leadership with traditional energies of power, status, competition valued above anything else.We discuss how you find joy as a leader and how we have never been trained in being resilient and staying happy. Dr. John shares the three-step framework they use at Blueprint, a collaboration with University of British Columbia to enhance the well-being of men and communities. Insightful and thought-provoking. I love his advice to watch where the puck is going. He is based in Canada. Yes, puck.

#139 Melissa Hamilton - Embarrassed to be a Feminist
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Six months ago, a brilliant female executive shared the reaction of her male leader to choosing to work with me. Finally, I am ready to share my own reaction to his words. Am I a feminist? I thought it time to tell this story and to acknowledge what a complex layered relationship so many of us have with the word feminist and the label feminine. I get down and personal, sharing my own childhood and how despite the incredible vision my parents set for my future they never suggested CEO. Love to hear your thoughts.
