The Future is Human - with Kayleigh O'Keefe


May 27, 2021

Welcome to the Kayleigh O’Keefe Show!

 

“If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together,” says Linda Fisk, CEO of LeadHERship Global. This African proverb speaks to one of the primary reasons Linda created LeadHERship Global, a community of unstoppable women that gives every member the support she needs to be heard, vulnerable and authentically herself.

 

Tune into this week’s episode of The Kayleigh O’Keefe Show to learn more about:

• Why grit and grace are key attributes of any unstoppable woman 

• Why co-creation is more effective than going at it alone

• Why kindness is crucial in any setting

• And why being a lifelong learner will always pay off!

 

Quotes

• “LeadHERship Global is a confidential, supportive community that’s really designed to accelerate the success of every single individual member of LeadHERship Global by integrating self-directed learning, impactful group experiences, peer advisory services, and then, of course, expert-led coaching and mentoring. We believe that that is an incredible recipe for success and really helps enhance the leadership blueprint of unstoppable women around the world. It really helps them embrace their power to be the very best versions of themselves in work as well as in life.” (4:09-4:51)

• “Women join LeadHERship Global to be challenged, to grow, to advance, and also to connect. To connect with other like-minded leaders where they get to be truly vulnerable and really authentic.” (7:20-7:33)

• “There is incredible power in this idea of partnership and this idea of partnership that’s based on mutual respect formed by extending trust. And it comes from a fundamental awareness of the key relationships in your life. Literally every relationship in your life can be seen as a potential partner rather than just a transaction.” (14:59-15:22)

• “There’s an old African proverb...which is, ‘If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together.’ And that is absolutely true. True partnership is about identifying the shared value that each partner brings and then leveraging the combined strengths of those partners to achieve a level of impact that could never be accomplished independently.” (17:41-18:08)

• “Using that area of influence or power that I was given to lift others up and support others has been absolutely probably my most important legacy and the thing that I’m most proud of.” (22:04-22:19)

• “Beyond the value that you bring to work, beyond the kind of job that you do, beyond your competence, what really matters is your kindness because that is what changes everything. It changes cultures, it changes relationships, it changes partnerships, it changes the very fabric of the business itself if you operate with an incredible sense of kindness meaning that you’re more interested in serving others than being served.” (26:14-26:48)

• “No matter what the goal is, no matter what the long-term objective is, no matter how much grit you have, people are going to face setbacks. They’re going to face mistakes, missteps, along the way, and that’s where grace comes in. And I believe that true grace...is based on lessons that are often learned through experiencing the result of failure.” (37:24-37:47)
