07 Mar 2024
Thokozile Lewanika is a coach, speaker and facilitator with a rich leadership career as a talent executive at Absa Group, Discovery Group and Novartis, and an organisational performance expert at McKinsey & Company. In Part 2 of our conversation, we explore the shifting motivation behind her career choices from primarily solving for making an impact to increasingly solving for happiness. She’s bravely transcending her identity as a high achiever, redefining what is considered a “worthy” career and creating a legacy that she can be proud of. Topics discussed in Part 2: * How Thokozile has made career choices, her driving motivation and her golden thread * The conundrum of being a C-suite executive who does not enjoy managing people * Letting go of titles and role levels so that we can embrace a more expansive identity and create lives that will make us happy * The legacy she wants to leave behind and the one thing she wants her children to have learned from her Learn more about Thokozile and contact her for business opportunities. -- FREE RESOURCE Chart your course for 2024 using this short, guided teaching that builds on the 4 leadership themes for the year that I shared in Episode 26 Clarify what you want for your career and how you want to lead with the Discover What Gives You Meaning online workshop Book a free 1x1 coaching discovery call or reach out for speaking, leadership development or culture and talent consulting for your company Accelerate your career advancement with the Get Promoted online course Find me on LinkedIn and Instagram Sign up to receive my leadership letter Sponsor an episode
