Ever felt like you're the only one in the room who doesn't quite belong, even though you've earned your seat a hundred times over? As a young woman navigating leadership roles in male-dominated industries, on a whole new continent, no less, Sue Musson quickly realized that confidence doesn't always come easy, and it definitely isn't always welcomed. Now a sought-after leadership consultant, coach, and the bestselling author of Firecracker Leadership, Sue has spent decades helping others untangle the messy mix of self-doubt, ambition, and perception that so many leaders face.
