Lessons from a Career at Facebook, Walmart & More with Tom Lenoble EP 100
In the latest episode of Your Employment Matters, host Beverly Williams sits down with Tom Lenoble, a seasoned executive, leadership coach, and CEO of the Academy for Coaching Excellence. Tom shares his incredible career journey from MCI to Facebook and beyond, offering insights into the evolving job market, workplace dynamics, and career longevity.
đź’ˇ Key Takeaways:
✅ Career Evolution & Adaptability: Tom’s journey from telecommunications to Silicon Valley startups and coaching highlights the importance of being open to unexpected opportunities, sometimes even from companies you've never heard of (Hello, early Facebook!).
âś… The Changing Landscape of HR & Hiring: The hiring process has evolved dramatically from face-to-face interviews to digital screenings. While efficiency has improved, companies may be missing out on top talent by relying solely on automated systems.
✅ Workplace Culture & Hybrid Models: While remote work offers flexibility, there is still value in in-person interactions. Networking, mentorship, and those “hallway conversations” can significantly impact career growth.
âś… Gen Z in the Workplace: Employers are struggling with high turnover rates among Gen Z employees, but instead of dismissing them, companies should focus on bridging generational gaps through mentorship and leadership training. Meanwhile, young professionals should take initiative and ask questions, be open to feedback, and show enthusiasm for growth.
âś… The Power of Presence & Reputation: Whether in an office or out in public, people are always observing. Being intentional about how you present yourself can open unexpected doors.
Tom also previews his upcoming book, My Life in Business Suits, Hospital Gowns, and High Heels, and shares his favorite Maya Angelou quote:
"Every storm runs out of rain." 🌦️
🎧 Tune in for an insightful discussion on career resilience, leadership, and adapting to the modern workplace.
