Too Short for a Blog Post, Too Long for a Tweet 295




Here is an excerpt from an article I recently read, "Pepsi's Former CEO Shared the 1-Sentence Secret to Her Success as a Leader; It's the Opposite of What We've Been Told," in the October 6, 2021 issue of Inc. Magazine.


"When we talk about the future of work, we have to stop talking about technology and talk about families -- about women," said Nooyi. "We need them in the workplace, and we're going to build a system to support them."

Part of this is owning identity -- without shame. "Never hide what makes you, you," she said. And, to the many women who, in her words, "are increasingly producing the talent to keep the engines of the economy growing," she had this to say: "At the end of the day, don't forget you're a person, don't forget you're a mother, don't forget you're a wife, don't forget you're a daughter."
