Episode #56 - Fixing the "Broken Rung:" Replacing the Career Ladder with a Career Lattice to Advance Career Mobility In traditional organizations, career advancement has often followed a linear path that resembles a ladder. It was created out of a need for standardized career paths and structured career development programs.

On the podcast today, we'll talk about why the career lattice is the best choice to advance the career mobility of women in the workplace.

Episode #55 - Why Organizations Need to Tap into The Power of Executive Masterminds I LOVE supporting professional women in midlife, fearlessly navigating or reinventing their careers, and gaining unstoppable confidence in the process.

In today's episode, I'm sharing more about our corporate work and why executive masterminds can provide a solution to the current pipeline and talent development challenges organizations face around women and women of color leaders.
