119. Enhancing Leadership Through Vulnerability with Wendy Ryan

Most people associate vulnerability with weakness. In reality, vulnerability is closely related to authenticity and integrity—all traits a strong leader should embody.  Today we’re talking about, you guessed it—leadership. My guest is my amazing client Wendy Ryan, CEO of Kadabra, who works with organizations on leadership, change, allyship, equity, and inclusion. Wendy and I talk about vulnerability among leaders, what it looks like, what’s appropriate vulnerability (and when we’ve gone too far). This is such an important conversation because, as small business owners, it’s important to recognize how much impact we have on our clients and our teams. Listen in!
