    Creating Opportunity for Everyone

    Did you know women represent only 33% of employees in the Tech industry? And according to Accenture half of women who go into the tech industry drop out by the age of 35. Knowing those stats, it's great when you hear of a company that is beating those odds. I wanted to know what is making the difference, so I've invited Laura Baldwin, the President of O'Reilly Media to share what they are doing at O'Reilly with all of us. Meet Laura Baldwin Laura Baldwin began working with O'Reilly Media in October 2001 as Chief Financial Officer and added Chief Operating Officer to her responsibilities before becoming O'Reilly's first President in March 2011. Prior to O'Reilly, she consulted for the publishing industry with BMR Associates, managing diverse large projects. Her media career started at Chronicle Books, where she was CFO for ten years, contributing to its successful distribution and gift business launch. Laura's diverse experience in banking, corporate governance, and media fuels her passion for the industry. She credits her leadership ethos to her all-girls high school, where she was taught that leadership is available to anyone who demonstrates initiative and drive regardless of their gender. At O'Reilly, she helped to create a diversity scholarship program and continues to advocate for an inclusive and open workforce. In this episode Laura and I discuss: ·         O'Reilly's executive team stat (45% women) and companywide stat of 43% women ·         When O'Reilly realized there was a discrepancy in their company, and something needed to change. ·         What they are doing differently, which has allowed them to sustainably achieve these numbers. ·         O'Reilly's current focus to help their people continue to have flexibility and manageable workloads.

    Reduce Angst by Increasing Your Commitment

    Why do we sometimes struggle to achieve certain goals, while others that are even more challenging are accomplished without much difficulty or stress? Any goal designed to create change or transformation takes commitment. And your commitment level - to do what it takes to achieve the goal - determines your experience as you work toward that goal. Why is that? In this episode we're exploring why a 100% commitment to your goal makes achieving the goal easier and dare I say much more enjoyable.   Resources Connect with Jodi Flynn on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodiflynn Leadership Coaching.

    Cultivating Psychological Safety in Leadership

    What does it truly mean to have a psychologically safe workplace and why do so many organizations struggle to create psychologically safe environments? According to research released last fall by Wiley, only 53% of individual contributors and 55% of supervisors say they feel safe taking risks at their organizations. Risk taking is a required component of creativity, problem solving, and innovation. A low threshold for risk can be concerning depending on the requirements of the job or the industry one is in. In this episode of Women Taking the Lead, we delve into the concept of psychological safety, its profound impact on team performance, the essential behaviors for creating psychological safety, and strategies to overcome challenges.

    What Do You Need More, Time or Energy?

    If you could have more time or more energy, which would you choose? I'm going to get bold and make the case that many of your challenges would be overcome if you had more energy. If you're like me trying to control time, you take things off your schedule only to find other things have filled that briefly open space. As a result of your effort, you still don't have any extra time. What you've got is a new routine. In this episode I'm laying out why you are better served by finding the best ways to renew your energy, rather than looking for more time. Resources Leadership Coaching.

    5 Things That Cause People to Lose Trust

    Most people, without training and mindset work, are uncomfortable giving others feedback. Without training and mindset work, giving feedback is perceived as a hard conversation. This is largely because of uncertainty of how the receiver is going to respond to the feedback. The fear is that the receiver will at minimum take offense and withdraw. They could also become defensive and lash out. I think we can all admit that there have been times when we avoided giving feedback for this reason. We've avoided giving feedback to protect ourselves, even though it would give the other person an opportunity to change their behavior and increase their chances of positive outcomes. On the other side of that equation, when we don't get quality feedback it leaves us with a gap in knowledge and unable to even consider making changes. Trust answers the basic question, can I rely on you? How much trust someone has in you is in relationship to the level to which they believe you can be relied upon. In this episode I'm sharing five things that will cause people to lose trust in you.

    Myths That Prevent Gender Parity in Leadership

    Have you come face-to-face with any of the prevailing myths about women in the workplace? Last month I interviewed Analiza Wolf, the author of The Myths of Success: A Woman of Color's Guide to Leadership. Analiza's book, and our conversation, focused on the myths we women, buy into that hinder our growth as leaders. Not too long ago, I was listening to an episode on The McKinsey Podcast, produced by McKinsey & Company. The episode was titled Busting myths about women in the workplace. Interesting. Not myths that we women hold about ourselves. Rather, the myths that are held about women in the workplace in general. Then recently I came across an article by Gallup titled The Path to Gender Parity in Leadership, published March 8, 2024. This article complimented and added to the information shared on The McKinsey Podcast. I found the topic of myths about women all so fascinating that I wanted to share it with you.
