Towards Leadership #12
from Leadership Letters
In this episode, we are reflecting on our conversation with author of Revolting Women: Why Midlife Women Are Walking Out And What to Do About It, Dr Lucy Ryan. You can learn more about Lucy here and find her on LinkedIn. Inspired by Lucy's work, we offer you some questions to prompt your thinking as a leader about the extent to which you, and your organisation, are aware of, and meeting, the needs of individuals in your organisation in midlife. The role of love in leadership also features, as well as resources for reflecting on and considering what people might be experiencing in midlife, as well as what you might have underestimated about them! Lastly, in light of the extraordinary piece of history that Lucy shared, we wrap up the season by thinking about the act of writing letters, why they matter in leadership, and why you might like to write your own Leadership Letter.
