In this episode of the Body Talk podcast, we’re talking about leadership and ways that you can flourish in a senior role and inspire your team.

For anyone who is on the leadership path or has been on that journey, we know it’s tough. There are constant hurdles to overcome, not least from the pressures we put on ourselves.

Susan Brady is the Deloitte Ellen Gabriel Chair for Women and Leadership at Simmons University in Boston and the first Chief Executive Officer of The Simmons University Institute for Inclusive Leadership.

The Institute develops the mindset and skills of leaders at all stages of life to foster gender parity and cultures of inclusion. Susan is a relationship expert and leadership well-being coach; she educates leaders and executives globally on fostering self-awareness to get the best out of themselves and others. 

She is also a speaker and author - having written three books on leadership. Her most recent, Arrive & Thrive: 7 Impactful Practices for Women Navigating Leadership, was released in April 2022 and landed on the best-seller list in the Wall Street Journal, Publishers Weekly, and USA Today.

We explore how women can thrive in leadership roles, how you can foster a culture of belonging and inclusion and what to do when your inner critic starts to take over.
