The Power of "And": Leadership Lessons from Sarena Diamond
Manage episode 492383478 series 3525842
Sarena Diamond, with 30 years of corporate leadership experience, shares powerful strategies for thriving amid constant change and defining success on your own terms.
• The world is genuinely more chaotic than ever, requiring leaders to develop "new muscles" to thrive in continuous change
• Success should be defined personally rather than by traditional metrics of promotions and titles
• The "Power of And" helps leaders integrate different approaches rather than choosing between them
• Resistance to change typically stems from fear - of obsolescence, unknown paths, or losing expertise
• Building clarity in chaos starts with understanding the people involved and analyzing communication patterns
• Change is like ocean waves - sometimes you're at the calm shoreline, sometimes in deeper water, and sometimes in the breaking waves
• Women should embrace that they are "enough as they are" while recognizing their power to choose their paths
• Communication is leadership and leadership is communication - they are the same conversation
