Going Up: Young Women & Leadership

“As a parent, I cannot think of any other reason to bring a human into this world, other than to support the flourishing of a life's fullest expression.” There is a difference between a business owner and a business leader. Business ownership historically leads patriarchally, treating employees as property, a means to an end, and disposable. Business leadership seeks to operate more matriarchally, working to create a culture and environment that supports onward and upward economic mobility. Do you own, or do you lead? Creating the infrastructure for girls, women, and mothers to flourish within your company is not too complicated. It’s actually easier than you think - but it may cost you a bit of time and intention. In this episode, I’ll give you some simple ways to get started, infuse some matriarchal leadership strategies, and help you position your business as a leader in your industry. Go HERE to read the essay that inspired this episode. xoxoxo,Melinda

Coeur Notes: Communications Science - 4Flows Theory

Culture is a silent language. Communication constitutes. To name something is to bring it into understanding. Animals, people, and all elements of nature and science are identified through naming. Speaking helps to embrace understanding, declare an existence, and establish meaning. In order to keep organizational and relational flows moving swiftly and smoothly, mindful leaders look to communication theories for identifying problems, maintaining understanding, and clarifying solutions.
