Professional Humans

Elli has a chat with Randi Myhre, a talent recruiter in technology, to get some tips about using recruiters and starting a job search in the midst of the Covid Crisis.

Aileen and Elli have a conversation with a human performance coach, resiliency expert, award winning author on the essential tools in the self advocacy tool kit. Jenny Evans, founder and CEO of Powerhouse Performance shares her insights on the role of alter egos (wait for it, she has one and you’re gonna want one too) and inner mentors in self advocacy and engagement.

Elli and Aileen talk with a former executive and head of merchandising at a Fortune 50 company about her experiences as a younger person in her career and her perspective now as a mentor and coach. Trish shares a unique view both as an ahead-of-her-time female leader and as a happily retired woman with lots of great hindsight...as expected, she talks about self awareness as a foundation and shared a bonus hint to mentees-be direct with your mentors and leaders!

Aileen and Elli have a conversation with a small business owner about creating an engaging culture with loyal employees. Kate shares some of her more corporate what-not-to-do stories that helped shape her view of the company culture she wanted to create with her team.

Elli and Aileen talk to a long time corporate lawyer about the importance of self awareness, and ultimately authenticity, in picking the right moments to self advocate. Bob shares his perspective and stories from his own career navigating corporate and law firm cultures.

Aileen and Elli spend some time with Alana, who shares stories of advocating for herself and opening up new opportunities in her career and also shares stories of helping others form a team to help them cultivate self-awareness.
