In the 2nd episode of our interview series, we welcome Sue Sleigh, a leader in nonprofit healthcare. Sue talks with us about the importance of authentic leadership in challenging times. We explore themes such as the burden of care on frontline workers, the necessity of collaboration, and the role of humility in leadership. Sue shares insights on balancing efficiency with humanity, engaging stakeholders in change, and the significance of self-care for leaders. We dig into the somatic experience of leadership and the need for leaders to stay connected to their teams and the communities they serve.
