Authentic Leadership: from the yoga mat to the boardroom with Tingting Peng

from Seat At My Table Podcast · host talullahlake

What if true leadership looked less like boys clubs and bravado — and more like mindfulness, motherhood, and meaningful relationships? Today’s guest, Tingting Peng, redefines what it means to be in the C-Suite and provides a role model of leadership that we are all seeking but struggle to find.  Tingting is the Chief Transformation Officer at Moove, a global mobility fintech reimagining access to vehicle ownership that closed a $100 million Series B round in March 2024. She’s also an angel investor, advisor to startups, international yoga teacher, and mother. Recognised as one of the Top 100 Women in Fintech and a Top 25 Women Leader in Financial Technology, Tingting’s journey spans Wall Street boardrooms to yoga studios — and everything in between. In this conversation, we go deep into the beginning of Tingting’s career, the reality of being an Investment Banking Analyst, and where her determination to prove people wrong began. We delve into how a period of personal crisis became the catalyst to change and a yoga qualification that saved her life and continues to be the key to her corporate success. We explore the power of curiosity, leadership through authenticity, and why the courage to be a student again might just be the key to your next breakthrough.   In this conversation we cover: The desire to prove people wrong and exceed expectations Tough reality and expectations as an Investment Banking Analyst How yoga saved her and continues to unlock success in all aspects of her life How burnout, a breakup, and forced career break catalysed her career change Realising everyone is the star of their own movie Success starts with doing the work Leading with authenticity Why having the courage to be a beginner again is so important The power of bringing motherhood into the boardroom and beyond Why play, creativity, and communication matter in corporate life Creating deals where everyone wins   Book discussed in this conversation: The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment, By Eckhart Tolle   Find Tingting:  Website: https://www.tingtingpeng.com/about Instagram: @superfitnessgirl
