Battling with Business

Episode 108 - Influencers#18 - Amelia Earhart

13 Feb 2025

Description

In this influencers episode, Chris and Gareth explore the life, legacy, and strategic impact of Amelia Earhart, examining how her pioneering achievements resonate in today’s world of influence and leadership. They analyse Earhart as an early influencer, discussing how her aviation feats, media presence, and personal brand shaped perceptions of women in leadership and adventure. Drawing parallels to modern influencers, they explore whether today’s influential figures take a tactical or strategic approach in shaping public opinion and driving change. They debate whether Earhart’s legacy was driven by personal ambition or a broader mission to challenge gender norms, comparing her to modern figures who navigate branding, media attention, and social movements. The discussion broadens to the challenges of influence in modern society, including navigating political correctness, freedom of speech, and the balance between authenticity and public expectations. Chris and Gareth also touch on the broader impact of diversity initiatives, questioning how businesses and leaders can integrate inclusion effectively without compromising organisational objectives. Looking ahead, they plan to continue exploring the intersection of influence, leadership, and historical figures, providing fresh perspectives on what it means to shape industries and drive meaningful change.
