Ep 12 – Principles of Authenticity for Women Leaders, with guest Kate Sibbett

Do you want to lead authentically? I find a lot of women do… but aren’t sure exactly how to do it. Kate shares some ideas today to help.

What is authentic leadership?

• The 3 core principles of Authentic Leadership
• How women can be authentic in their leadership at work, build trust and be results-driven
• The benefits of Adaptable Leadership
• And leveraging your authentic strengths

Episode Quote:

“People are expecting more from their leaders and the next skill up is the emotional piece [being more empathetic].”

“I have learned that change is the only constant, and we must learn to adjust, adapt, and never lose the desire to progress and challenge ourselves personally and professionally.”

“We take for granted how much we [women] actually do in a day because it’s expected.”
(Kate Sibbett, guest on Her Ambitious Career podcast)
