EPISODE 157 | MARCH 20, 2024
Discover the secrets to making an impact with featured guest Dr. Ronicka Harrison-Briscoe, a distinguished leader whose life work embodies the essence of transformative leadership and community engagement. As an interdisciplinary scholar and a beacon of change, Dr. Briscoe shares her invaluable insights on fostering a leadership mindset, balancing professional and personal life, and the power of understanding one's innate strengths.
Join Host Natalie Benamou as she explores the layers of leadership through the lens of education, mentorship, and the relentless pursuit of empowerment for women and young girls with Dr. Briscoe.
The discussion with Dr. Ronicka Harrison-Briscoe brought to light several insightful highlights regarding her work interviewing C-suite leaders. Here are some key takeaways:
“We are born with innate talents, abilities, and strengths. If we live our lives to really develop those rather than focusing on the things we can't do and our weaknesses, then we live a more fulfilled life.”
“If you don't know who you are when you go into an organization, they'll make you who they want you to be. Knowing who you are, what you bring to the table, what you value, and when those values are being challenged, that's the difficulty.”
“Leadership is not just about guiding others. It's about igniting a spark within them to discover their own strengths and potential.”
“Empowerment begins with the belief that you are capable of making a difference. It's about setting a path for others to follow, not by leading them, but by walking beside them.”
“Resilience in leadership doesn't mean never facing setbacks. It means having the courage to rise every time we fall, armed with lessons learned and a vision that guides us forward.”
Dr. Briscoe's discussion not only highlighted the achievements and challenges of African American women in C-suite positions but also offered valuable lessons on leadership, resilience, and the importance of support networks for aspiring leaders.
