**When Women in Leadership Act Like Men, Everyone Loses** It’s a hard truth, but one we need to talk about: some women in leadership positions believe that to succeed, they need to adopt the same aggressive, cutthroat tactics often associated with male leaders. But at what cost? Early in my career, I worked under a female leader whose leadership style mirrored that of her male counterparts—intimidating, controlling, and dismissive of collaboration. Instead of feeling empowered, I felt belittled and drained. It was a tough lesson. Here’s the reality: *Women don’t need to lead like men to be effective.* Authentic leadership—built on empathy, communication, and inclusivity—is not just powerful, it’s transformative. When we embrace our natural strengths, we uplift others and ourselves. It’s time to challenge the idea that strength looks one way. Let’s celebrate leadership that’s authentic and values-driven. #Leadership #WomenInLeadership #AuthenticLeadership #SupportEachOther #Growth

I've met C-level execs with 20 yrs experience who were mediocre at best And brand new, 29-year-old VPs knocking it out of the park Let's STOP relying on years of experience as a proxy for whether someone deserves a seat at the table Look at their skills Look at their values Look at their leadership style Look at the way they approach problems There's more to a person than the time they've already spent in senior leadership And you may be missing out on great (diverse) talent by not realizing this ✌️💜 Repost this to spread the word!
