15: The Leadership Vitality Gap: What Our Data’s Telling Us


Listen Later

The leadership crisis no one wants to talk about...

Disengagement is rising, and female leaders are feeling it first.

This episode breaks down the real cost of disengaged leadership, starting with your own.
We reveal what the latest Gallup data isn’t saying out loud... and the quiet signals organizations keep missing.

At Phoenix, we recently surveyed women in people-leadership roles through our Leadership Vitality Scorecard. The results confirmed what many already feel:
Most women know what matters in leadership, but too many are still drained, depleted, and quietly opting out.

So what’s the cost of that slow exit?

In this episode, I share:
• Why female leader engagement is dropping (and what that means for your teams)
• The paradox we uncovered in our leadership vitality data
• A new call to action for organizations and for the women ready to lead differently
• How to calculate the hidden cost of disengagement and attrition

This is your invitation to lead with vitality, not depletion.
