How To Become More Resilient as an Underrepresented Leader


Listen Later

Resiliency is an important trait for any leader, but the systemic barriers that underrepresented professionals face, on top of persisting gender and racial gaps, make this skill even more vital. My guest, Jacqueline Twillie, quite literally wrote the book on resiliency for these leaders, drawing on her experience working to reduce worldwide inequity. 

In this episode, we discuss her book and her approach to strategic sustainability for leaders facing these challenging dynamics. From the cyclical process of refilling your resilience well to a fresh take on failure, Jacqueline’s approach to empowering women from underrepresented backgrounds who are navigating the pitfalls and potentials of leadership offers real-world advice for all leaders seeking a stronger foothold in their futures.

Reset your mindset with Jacqueline’s expert insights into:

  • The ways risk, resilience, rest, and reward work together to foster growth;
  • How cultivating resilience is like navigating a traffic jam;
  • What neurotransmitters and nutrition have to do with resilient leadership.
