Leadership That Actually Works — With Maren Perry of Arden Coaching

Hello Unbreakable Mompreneurs!Leadership is not just a corporate buzzword. It is how we show up in our homes, in our businesses, in our marriages, and in our communities. In this episode, I sit down with Maren Perry, Founder and CEO of Arden Coaching, to talk about what real leadership looks like — and why most leadership advice misses the mark.If you are tired of leadership advice that sounds like it was written by a committee, you are going to love this conversation.Maren brings a style that is direct, intelligent, and just light enough to make even the tough topics go down easy. Think less “trust fall exercise,” and more “let us solve the problems that actually keep you up at night.”For nearly two decades, Maren has partnered with CHROs, VPs of HR, and senior executives across some of America’s largest companies to design leadership development that actually sticks. Not the check-the-box kind of training — the kind that transforms people and, by extension, organizations.In this episode, we discuss:Why most leadership training failsHow great leaders understand their own “filters” and blind spotsThe role uncertainty plays in today’s leadership climateHow coaching drives measurable cultural transformationWhat authentic leadership truly looks likeLessons leadership and motherhood teach us about communication and emotional intelligenceThe power of understanding someone else’s perspective — whether that is an employee or a teenagerMaren also shares how one client organization grew tenfold while transforming its culture through coaching leaders at every level — from the C-suite to rising managers.With a background in cognitive science and thousands of hours coaching senior leaders in industries from healthcare to finance to Major League Soccer, Maren blends science and humanity in a way that makes leadership practical, not theoretical.If you are a business owner, corporate leader, HR executive, or mom building something meaningful — this conversation will challenge you and equip you.Because leadership is not just about business results. It is about people. And when leaders get that right, everything else follows.Maren PerryFounder & CEO, Arden Coaching🌐 Website: https://ardencoaching.com🔗 LinkedIn (Company): Arden Coaching🔗 LinkedIn (Personal): Maren PerryIf you reach out and mention the Unbreakable Mompreneurs podcast, Maren is offering a complimentary leadership assessment.Charisse WalkerHost, Unbreakable Mompreneurs🌐 Website: https://charissewalker.com📸 Instagram: @charissewalker1🔗 LinkedIn: Charisse WalkerStop Wasting Money on Leadership Training That Does Not WorkThe Secret Weapon Every CHRO Forgets They HaveWhy Your Best People Quit (and What Great Leaders Do About It)Leadership Is Not About Results (And Why That Changes Everything)How to Get Senior Leaders to Actually Engage in CoachingUnbreakable Moms, remember:Leadership starts with you.It starts in your home.It starts in your thinking.It starts in how you communicate.Embrace motherhood.
