Great leadership doesn’t come from a book. It comes from a life lived – one that includes new experiences, some risk-taking and the desire to move forward and to help others move forward as well. One of the best ways to learn great leadership comes from listening to people who have done these things, and there can be no finer example than my guest on this episode, Brigette McInnes-Day.

One of the best ways to learn how to become a great leader is to learn from someone who has already traveled that path. Someone who is not only successful, but who is held in great esteem not only by peers, but also, and maybe more importantly by the people being led.

In this interview Craig candidly shares his lessons learned and translates them into teachable moments. 

A conversation with Natalie Benamou. There are numerous challenges facing women in business, not just social and economic, but self-imposed as well. Women approach things very differently than their male counterparts. Expectations around doing a good job and getting it all done make it difficult for many women to step up and demand their fair share of acknowledgement. It is possible to shatter that glass ceiling and to help others do it too, but not only do you have to know how to define yourself, you also need to know how others define you – and then step forward to make the necessary adjustments. On this episode I am joined by a very special guest, Natalie Benamou, Chief Executive Officer of HerCsuiteTM, to share her insights and wisdom for navigating a successful career. I describe her as a purpose driven leader, a strategic event creator, and a speaker, but more than that, she’s a rainmaker for women who want to rise and thrive.
