    Episode 17: You're Not The Right Mould.... Leadership and Careers

    Send us Fan Mail Part 2: Not the Right Mould Last episode, we explored the leaders who saw our potential before we could see it ourselves. In this episode, we explore the other side of that story. What happens when someone else decides who you are before you've finished becoming who you could be? Drawing from personal career experiences, Linda shares lessons learned from being overlooked, excluded from succession discussions, and realizing that being in the wrong environment is not the same as being the wrong person. If you've ever felt underestimated, invisible, or confined by someone else's expectations, this conversation is for you. In This Episode Why strong performance doesn't always translate into future opportunity The danger of allowing someone else's ceiling to become your own How leaders can unintentionally limit the growth of others Why clarity matters more than false reassurance The difference between being the wrong person and being in the wrong environment How to recognize when it's time to stop proving yourself and start finding a better fit Memorable Quote "I'm not the wrong person. I'm just not the right mould."Reflective Question Where in your career are you spending energy trying to prove yourself, rather than finding the place where you can truly grow?
