INT 177 - Why do Women Shy away from Leadership?

Consider your organization and ask yourself, "How many women are in leadership roles?"

Many companies may have fewer than five women in senior positions. But what's the reason behind this?

Could it be that we're still navigating a male-dominated society? Or perhaps some women feel reluctant to step into these roles?

The reality behind the second query might astonish you.

In this episode of the Int-HER-rupt podcast, host Linda Yates engages in an insightful discussion with executive coach Loree Philip on the disparity of women in senior leadership positions.

Linda and Loree share inspiring anecdotes from their own journeys and offer valuable strategies for navigating the complexities of leadership in male-dominated industries.
