057 The Importance of Flexibility & Empathy in 2021

When I started communicating with Emily Courey Pryor last spring, I knew right away that I wanted to have her on the podcast. Her previous experiences, her current work leading Data2X, and her passion for equality and leadership were all things that our listeners needed to hear. Then the pandemic hit, followed by a significant reversal of progress on gender equality, all while leading a busy organization and working from home with two small children. A year later, I am overjoyed to share with you what feels like the perfect episode for 2021. "One of the important things that I have a learned as a leader, and as a working parent, is when you have to say 'I need a minute.'" This opening statement from Emily set the foundation for our conversation. Patience, awareness, and understanding are all qualities I am inspired by in Emily, not to mention her innovation, curiosity, and flexibility. The work Data2X is doing on gender data is just as intriguing as Emily’s leadership qualities.
