Why we need to Rethink Leadership Development of Executive Women

Welcome to Episode 5 of Shifting the Needle, our DE&I podcast presented by CEO & Master Executive Coach Geraldine Gallacher.

We’re delighted to welcome Jennifer Petriglieri back to our Shifting the Needle podcast to move the conversation on from ‘dual-career couples’ in episode 4, to why we need to rethink leadership development of executive women, how it’s not about ‘fixing the women’, and why marginal flexibility is a good thing. Listen to the new episode on Women’s Leadership Development here or watch the video above.
