78. In With...Elana Rugh: Human Centered Leadership (aka Just be nice!)
from In With the Podcast (with Jenna!) · host Jenna Washnieski
Welcome Elana Rugh to the podcast! Elana is the CEO of the Detroit Historical Society, where she oversees a team of 80 and manages some of the most important cultural landmarks in the country. We dove deep into what it actually looks like to be a "human-centered" leader and how to navigate the "invisible burden" of caring for your people. Plus, Elana talks about the importance of carving guilt-free time for yourself, listening to your gut when it comes to delivering tough news and how publicly sharing her story of being an adoptee has opened new doors of vulnerability. Elana reminds us of the best leadership advice ever: to be kind and to be ourselves.
