Could balancing a dynamic career with personal passions be the key to success? Join us as Tonia Dalton, partner at Induo Marketing, and Brooke Eastham, senior manager at CHG Healthcare, share their personal stories and how these experiences have shaped their professional lives. Tonia offers a fascinating glimpse into her past, including an unexpected stint as a psychic phone line worker, while Brooke discusses her dedication to supporting women in the workforce and her love for nail art. Together, these two accomplished women illustrate the power of diversity in the workplace and the benefits of crafting flexible environments for working mothers.
Workplace flexibility isn't just a buzzword—it's a fundamental change in how we view work, life, and career growth. This episode unpacks initiatives like the Women's Leadership Institute and the Elevate Her Challenge, which are pivotal in advancing women’s careers. Through Tonia and Brooke's experiences in executive roles, we uncover the importance of mentoring and the lifelong impact of having working parents as role models. With a focus on the advantages of remote work, we explore strategies to attract top talent from anywhere, turning distance into an asset rather than a hurdle.
Building strong professional relationships is more than just networking; it's about nurturing genuine connections that pave the way for collective success. Tonia and Brooke share stories and strategies for maintaining these connections, even amidst busy schedules. We discuss the subtle art of indirect leadership and the profound effect of acknowledging and supporting others in their journeys. Get inspired by tales of empowerment, where small acts of recognition lead to inclusivity and community strength. Prepare for an episode full of wisdom, lessons, and inspiring stories that demonstrate the true power of women lifting each other up.
