Summary:
We hear the word "authenticity" and are asked to "show up as ourselves" quite often these days. But, what does it really mean and what does it take to do that - especially in a leadership capacity?
Louise & Kim take a look at the topic of being authentically yourself at work and uncover some golden nuggets you can be more aligned with both your work and your company or organization.
