Leadership can be an isolating experience. The daily pressure to perform, wrestling with gut-wrenching decisions, and driving hard conversations all weigh on a leader’s soul. Overcoming what can often become a self-fulfilling prophecy of the lonely leader is not only crucial to your survival but also to those you lead. Drawing on her experiences as a successful entrepreneur and founder of Sseko Designs, Liz Bohannon understands the pressures that leaders face to have all the answers and make hard decisions in a complex and quickly changing landscape. Yet she’s seen what a leader support system can provide: better decision-making, improved team dynamics, and increased mental health for leaders and society at large. Walk away from this talk ready to embrace vulnerability in a new way and build authentic connections that can support you in the challenges ahead.
