The United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee has faced a firestorm these last few years with a series of independent investigations into a culture of silence and at times, the organization's underinvestment in athlete health and well-being. Board Chair Susanne Lyons comes on the pod this week to give us an honest look at the seesawing of servant leadership in sports and the takeaways from her transformative and humbling experience navigating a problematic authority gradient. With prestigious positions at Visa, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, and more, Susanne connects the dots between her dynamic career in business and her work in protecting and empowering athletes. We also discuss the importance of having a career-life balance, the discriminatory nature of disease in the American healthcare system, and the extraordinary catalysts that can come from a crisis.
