Thriving As A Leader When You Don't Fit The Mould

Being black and introverted, from early childhood Claudia Crawley has never felt that she fitted the mould.  Driven by her top values of ambition and achievement, in this week's episode, Claudia, discusses how she has thrived as a leader who doesn't fit the mould, and how you can too. From experience, she has found that women managers at middle and senior management level, often lack confidence, experience Impostor Syndrome, despite their achievements and have difficulty regarding themselves as leaders. Her aim is to support them to recognise and build on the leadership skills and experience they bring to the table so that they see themselves anew and from an empowered perspective.  Claudia's mission is to change the world one woman at a time!
