Description

Ready to rethink how you lead?

Rosie hosts Lyndsay Dowd, founder of Heartbeat for Hire, to talk about leading with heart, building a leadership brand, and the messy, beautiful journey of showing up as your most authentic self.

Lyndsay’s career has been anything but linear—from 23 years at IBM, to being unexpectedly fired, to launching her own leadership consultancy.

It’s a story about resilience, yes, but more importantly, it’s a lesson in how to flip the script when life throws you a curveball.

 Key Takeaways: 

• Heart-Centered Leadership: Leadership isn't about power; it's about cultivating trust, psychological safety, and autonomy within teams.
• Delegation as Empowerment: Delegating tasks isn’t just about offloading work; it’s a chance to help others shine and grow in their roles.
• Embracing Vulnerability: Leaders must be willing to admit mistakes and embrace their humanity to build trust and inspire their teams.
