Manage episode 425426301 series 3565060
Wondering how to embody leadership? It's way beyond a title.
In this episode of the Kick It Open podcast, host Shelby Nicholl is joined by Sheila Bast, a leadership coach from the Cohen Leadership Group. Sheila shares her journey in financial services and her passion for leadership development. They delve deep into the essence of leadership as a way of being rather than a title, discussing the importance of influence, executive presence, and empathy. Sheila provides thoughtful distinctions between 'being' and 'doing' leadership and offers insights into navigating organizational politics, the glass cliff phenomenon, and the differences in male and female leadership styles. The conversation also touches on practical advice for leveling up in leadership roles and the significance of mentorship and sponsorship for women aiming to climb the corporate ladder.
