EP 12 Michelle Vu, anxiety, being a mom, boss and student at the same time, mat leave as a leader
Michelle Vu is here! Michelle is a revenue leader, a mom of 2 littles, and an all-around awesome human.
Like many of us, Michelle has a very full plate. As a mom and revenue leader, she decided to add an advanced degree to her experience. She so openly shares what it was like to make that decision, the tradeoff discussions with her partner, how she feels about it now that she has homework and an even more full calendar.
We cover so much ground...
- ANXIETY and giving birth to our babies in 2020.
- Michelles' career choice to return to being an individual contributor after managing 21 people at 24. Why she did it and what we hope you learn from this experience.
- Her secret to staying power within companies and roles with low tenure.
- Michelle and I have a very similar view on human-first leadership.“ Take a listen and let us know what you think. Here is a quote from Michelle: "You can be uber successful having emotion, empathy, and gaining connection—it does not have to be boiler room.”
- Mat leave learnings and "bossing" as a mom - how to lead from the front.
Enjoy the show!
