Taking a cue from Joe Biden’s public announcement that he will select a woman as a VP candidate if he is his party’s nominee, Gloria takes a closer look at how someone might get herself ready to be selected for a major leadership role in any organization. She invites us to consider: how does one position oneself to be tapped by others who see your talent and want to help you move forward? How does one break through the barrier of otherness, of not being like or looking like the people that we have always seen in that seat? Gloria’s guidance on these and other foundational questions will help us all normalize women's leadership at the highest levels.

“Remember the ladies.” – Abigail Adams

“If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation.” – Abigail Adams

In this episode, Gloria broaches a topic that has recently been making waves in both politics and business: women in the boardroom. Gloria opens the show with an inspiring quote from Abigail Adams, which echoes the sentiment that women are just as strong, intelligent and capable of getting the job done. Gloria speaks to the work that Stephanie Sonnabend and Malli Gero have done launching a national campaign aimed at increasing the percentage of women on company boards to twenty percent or greater by 2020. They succeeded in that goal but the work doesn’t stop there! Gloria addressed the benefits that companies experience when they elevate women to their boards as well as legislation that is currently being lobbied to require organizations to promote more women to these leadership seats. Finally, Gloria provides key takeaways that listeners as well as executives can employ to support more women on boards across the world.

“What we really need to be thinking is that women have changed as much as they can. It is time for workplaces to change. It’s time for policies to change. And, it’s time for men to change.” - Brigid Schulte

In this episode, Gloria welcomes to the show Director of the Better Life Lab at New America and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, Brigid Schulte, and co-founder and CEO of Kinside, Shadiah Sigala to talk about the topic of how working mothers can succeed in the workplace and at home. Brigid and Shadiah share their experiences as mothers in the workplace.

They answer audience questions on pregnancy discrimination, the superhero myth, and the double standard that working mothers face. Gloria salutes all working parents, especially single mothers, and argues that we should all put parenthood on our resumes in order to highlight the emotional intelligence and other skills that accompany being a parent. Finally, Brigid and Shadiah share specific strategies and resources for women who want to build a career, earn a fair and competitive wage, and balance a family.

“Only she who attempts the absurd achieves the impossible.” – Robin Morgan

Gloria opens the podcast by discussing an article she recently read claiming that the next CEO of Wells Fargo would be a female human shield. The article argues that it would be a step backwards for women because this role is ‘unprecedentedly terrible’ and the new CEO would have to navigate difficult situations such as prior scandals, plummeting assets, legal issues, and regulatory and political pressures. However, Gloria argues that women should seize the opportunity to take on impossible jobs just like this one because it’s precisely within the chaos that companies are open to new ideas and a leader can move effectively to implement her own changes.

In this episode, Gloria highlights the importance of shifting the current ideology of ‘power over’ to ‘power to.’ She argues that power is an infinite resource, especially when it comes to innovation, imagination, and ingenuity. Gloria speaks to her own experience taking on an impossible job and the exhilaration she felt when she accomplished her goals. Finally, Gloria provides three specific reasons why women should continue to push their own limits and take on roles that many have deemed impossible.

“A movement has to move.” – Gloria Feldt

Gloria distinctly remembers when Diahann Carroll broke through a major television barrier by starring in the hit sitcom, Julia. Diahann was a black actress starring in a hit television show during the height of the Civil Rights Movement in 1968, a task that required courage, tenacity, and aplomb. In the midst of cultural unrest, Carroll was the first African-American woman to have the starring role in her own television show. Gloria argues that this was as momentous a step forward for racial equality as Rosa Parks’ refusal to go to the back of the bus, because media images are so powerful in creating social change and challenging the status quo. In this episode, Gloria lists and breaks down the five powerful lessons for change-makers from Diahann Carroll’s life. These include being intentional about your steps forward, using controversy and compromise strategically, and never underestimating your impact, among others. Finally, Gloria speaks to her own involvement with the Civil Rights Movement, her hunger for social change, and the inspiration to continue advocating for righteous cases like women’s rights.

“My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She’s ninety-seven now, and we don’t know where the heck she is!” – Ellen DeGeneres

In this episode, Gloria tackles a sensitive topic that impacts women of all ages: age discrimination. In her experience, Gloria has observed that women of a certain age tend to feel invisible in the workplace and struggle to be heard and remain relevant. She argues that age diversity is just as important to an organization’s growth and bottom line as gender, ethnic, and racial diversity. Aged employees bring a certain amount of maturity, experience and skill that younger employees may lack. Gloria cites designer Vera Wang, chef Julia Child, and author Laura Ingalls-Wilder, among others, as examples of successful women who started their famous careers later in life. Finally, Gloria shares two sets of practical tips for how employers and individuals alike can identify signs of age discrimination and address them accordingly.

“It is the intentions – the capacities for choice – rather than the total configuration of traits which defines the person” – Amelie Oksenberg Rorty

In this episode, Gloria talks about the importance of differentiating between ambition and intention. In her experience, Gloria has observed that women in business, leadership and life in general do not lack for ambition. It is the intention gap that holds women back from being acknowledged for their true value and worth. Gloria cites specific business and political case studies to further this point. She argues the traits that have historically been used against women are actually the strong characteristics that enable businesses to grow and countries to thrive under female leadership. Finally, Gloria shares three tips that women can use to activate their intention and develop it further.

In this episode, Gloria Feldt shares her experiences and thoughts about the importance of diversity, both gender and ethnic, in the workplace. She also discusses solutions and successes used by a variety of businesses and thought leaders, including the use of the word ‘belonging’ over ‘tolerance.’

Gloria discusses the connection between racism and sexism, and cites research that has found diversity improves the bottom line. She shares why many companies say they value diversity, though they execute on it with greater or lesser success, depending on several factors.

As a culture, if we see diversity as a plus, it is a plus. If we see it as a divide, it will divide us, with potentially disastrous consequences. Listen to this episode and connect with Gloria on social media to share your thoughts on this important topic.
