Tell us what you think? Ask to hear from someone you admire. Suggest a question? Ask for advice from one of our speakers? We would love to hear from you?
The podcast questions are a guide used during the interviews. I generally let the conversation take us in any direction.
Please give us a brief timeline of your career and what you are doing now?
Is your career what you imagined you would be doing?
What was your dream career when you were young?
What forces influenced the paths you ultimately chose to pursue?
What were the milestone or seminal moments in your career that gave you pause, shock or a desire for change or reflection.
What's the riskiest or boldest career move you've made? How did you evaluate the risk/reward?
How do you define success for yourself?
If you've stumbled along the journey, how did you overcome it?
How have you dealt with, or how would you recommend dealing with, instances of gender inequality in the workplace - whether blatant or subtle.
How have you been treated by other women over the course of your career? Have those relationships been mostly supportive, competitive, both?
If you stumbled along the way how did you overcome it.
Did you have a mentor? Who, why and how did they influence you?
What advice would you give a young working woman for finding the right mentor?
What differences have you found in working for a man vs. a woman?
If you could go back and give yourself 2 key insights what would they be?
What's one piece of advice you would give women who are currently moving into mid-senior roles in their respective fields?
If you could have lunch with anyone alive or dead who would it be and why.
