Lead Culture with Jenni Catron 229 | Empowering Female Leadership: Breaking Barriers and Fostering Inclusivity in Ministry with Kadi Cole
Ever wondered about the challenges of championing female leaders, particularly in a ministry context? Today, we join hands with Kadi Cole, a leading light in the arena of leadership coaching, and author of best-selling books. Katie's journey from a small church in Montana to becoming a pillar of strength for budding female leaders is sure to ignite your passion for leadership.
The conversation takes an intriguing turn as we dissect the 'sticky floor' conundrum and its dampening effect on female leadership. We explore the differing perspectives men and women have towards job opportunities and promotions, and the need for a robust culture of intentional inclusion. We also deliberate on the key elements of building a culture that encourages women to lead, take bold steps and seize opportunities.
Towards the end, we converge on the significance of nurturing a leadership development culture that values the talents of both men and women. We stress the role of individual leaders in creating an environment where women can flourish. Leadership is not a one-size-fits-all concept, and it falls upon us to imbue our leadership development processes with diversity and inclusivity. We'll share practical steps men and women can take to unlock their leadership potential.
