What if everything you’ve been taught about leadership is outdated? In this episode, I sit down with CNBC senior correspondent and author, Julia Boorstin, to break down what she discovered after interviewing hundreds of the world’s most innovative CEOs. Julia shares why women receive only a fraction of venture capital funding, how “pattern matching” quietly shapes who gets opportunities, and why today’s volatile world demands a new kind of leader. We also talk about humility, adaptability, and why dialing down your confidence in moments of crisis can make you a stronger decision-maker. Get ready to rethink the archetype of a CEO and discover the skills that will define the next generation of leaders. In This Episode You Will Learn Why only a FRACTION of funding goes to women. How “PATTERN MATCHING” shapes who gets promoted, funded, and trusted. Why today’s leaders need AQ (ADAPTABILITY QUOTIENT) more than ever. When to DIAL DOWN CONFIDENCE to gather better information. How HUMILITY creates smarter and faster decisions in crisis. Why GRATITUDE fuels long-term thinking and better leadership. How to draw out QUIETER VOICES so the best ideas win. Why leadership isn’t one ARCHETYPE and NEVER should be. How to build a GROWTH MINDSET that compounds over time. What men and women alike can LEARN from leaders who defy the odds.
