Strong Leaders Serve with Teri Schmidt
The leadership podcast for people who are in leadership not for the status and power, but instead to use that status and power to turn potential into performance for positive change.
Hosted by Teri Schmidt, Leadership Coach & CEO of Strong Leaders Serve.
Each week we focus on supporting leaders who are dealing with the overwhelming realities of transitioning into and operating in roles where their success isn't just defined by their performance, but by the performance of their team.
Roles where they are responsible for building trust, promoting psychological safety, conflict management, taking care of their team member's wellbeing, motivating other humans, and managing up, all while trying to GET THINGS DONE.
Through solo episodes with focused and relevant leadership tips and inspirational interviews with seasoned leaders and experts, we help leaders get past their overwhelm to careers of courageous impact.
Listeners hone their skills in making their workplaces more compassionate and just through their leadership.

144. Rethinking Work and Advancing Gender Equality with Dr. Tara Schwegler
Did you know that women represent over 52% of the professional workforce, but they only occupy 24% of C-Suite roles and only 10% of Fortune 500 companies are led by women?
What if the main barriers holding women back are actually outdated cultural assumptions that we have about the concept of work?
Dr. Tara Schwegler is back to talk about how challenging our assumptions about work can help advance gender equality and make our teams and workplaces more diverse and inclusive. It's time to get off auto-pilot in our workplaces and rethink what it means to lead a team that works well. Tara provides steps to do just that, including tips for leaders at all levels.
