Women's Relationship to Power and Leadership
Tag Archives: Bonnie MarcusWhat Leadership Lesson Are You Most Thankful For?This is an advice column where I’m supposed to answer your questions. But this Thanksgiving, I’m shaking things up in my life, so I turned the tables and asked some fabulous women leaders this question: What leadership lesson are you most thankful for? The outpouring of responses made me exceedingly grateful. Not a turkey among them. Here with a Thanksgiving feast of delicious wisdom you can savor calorie-free—and use all year. Saying grace (and listening to it) Anita Sands last year at age 34 became COO of UBS Wealth Management Americas, and is one of the smartest and best grounded leaders I know. She credits her father with her most important leadership lesson: “common sense is not the common.” Not surprisingly, she then resonated with this advice:

Lois Rabinowitz: Now You Can Wear Slacks
In the summer of 1960, Lois Rabinowitz went to traffic court in New York City to pay a speeding ticket for her boss. Lois was a 28-year-old secretary for an oil company executive. She was a newlywed and her husband of just two weeks drove her to the courthouse that morning. Lois was neatly dressed in slacks and a blouse. Upon seeing Lois in slacks, the Magistrate of the court was outraged and sent her home.

Wear the Shirt Can Spur a Movement
So I invited Sophfronia Scott, writer and founder of Done for You (a service that helps authors write and package their books) and executive coach Bonnie Marcus, who also hosts the “Head Over Heels” radio show, to share their stories with the audience. Both demonstrated power tool #6: wear the shirt, by revealing their authentic selves, their passions, their aspirations. Marcus described how she went to a job interview at a cardiac center with no management experience– in fact, no business experience whatsoever, and yet by showing her passion she got the job. “I talked about my passion for cardiac fitness,” she said. “I had been teaching aerobics. I talked about how the mission of their company resonated with me because my dad had a heart attack at fifty-seven and my family completely changed our lifestyle at home, becoming more active and eating heart-healthy foods. I showed the cardiac center how their mission and message was my way of life. They hired me! Certainly not because of anything but my passion and energy for the company and their mission.” Scott told us how she decided to tell the world (via a powerful blog post January 1) that 2010 would be her year of living fearlessly.
