Listen to discover how you can breakthrough barriers to bigger leadership roles
We women face a powerful barrier.
This is an often invisible obstacle that we must break through to make it anywhere close to bigger leadership roles.
It is not the glass ceiling—it is the mirrored door. Listen to learn processes to overcome seeds of doubt that hold us back. Ellen Connelly Taaffe is a Clinical Associate Professor at the Kellogg School of Management, where she teaches Personal Leadership Insights and is the Director of the Women’s Leadership Program.
She spent 25 years with Fortune 500 companies holding the top brand management post at divisions of PepsiCo, Royal Caribbean, and Whirlpool Corporation. Ellen serves as an independent board director for two public and one private company boards. She runs a leadership advisory consulting, speaking, and coaching business, and is a TEDx speaker.
Ellen shares her insights on leadership, careers, and advancing women and inclusion through her writing and speaking in media like Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Business Insider, and more.
Believing it is valuable to encourage women to step into their own leadership, Ellen explains how to let go of past messages and behaviors that block them. And realize their possibilities and opportunities.
That will lead them to bigger and better leadership roles when they breakthrough barriers in the workplace.
From her teaching, coaching, and investigation into existing research, Ellen has learned that today’s women are prepared to work and lead yet face the same hurdles she did years ago.
Ellen saw that society seemed to have glossed over the challenges women face. From navigating workplaces full of old systems, bias, and a lack of role models, amid a greedy culture that rewards careers at the height of women’s childbearing and caregiving years.
Her goal with her book ‘The Mirrored Door’ is to share the realities she has seen and to enlighten women on their way.
In this episode, Ellen shares how to set boundaries and overcome people-pleasing behaviours in her professional and personal life.
She talks about how to shift from thoughts to action using a four-part framework and how to succeed without struggle or self-judgment.
