Jacquie Alley: The cost of staying in the shadows – how to find your voice in the workplace

from The Mistakes That Shaped Me

The cost of staying silent versus the power of speaking up with Jacquie Alley, Chief Operating Officer at The Media Store, and hosted by Tomas Haffenden. Jacquie Alley has worked in the advertising world for over 25 years with one main goal: to leave the industry a better place than when she found it. She’s passionate about people and purpose and has had a brilliantly successful career, but for years she made the mistake that so many of us make: staying small. That is until she realised that her voice mattered, and that she could use it to not only supercharge her career but move the needle for others too. In this candid conversation, we cover:What happens when you really listen to others, and yourselfThe cost of staying silent Vs the power of finally speaking upThat electric feeling when you find your passion and act on itThe work (and reward) of getting more women into leadershipWhy amplifying women's voices isn’t just important, it’s essential This podcast is brought to you by Ashton Media – the organisers of ANZ’s leading events for senior leaders across the marketing, customer experience, HR and L&D industries.
