Today’s guest is Dawn Hudson, the former President and CEO of Pepsi-Cola North America and former CMO of the NFL.  Now, you don’t work for Pepsi unless you love competition. And Dawn absolutely has that competitive drive to keep pushing for better ideas and bigger impact. But she’s also passionate about helping leaders build cultures that allow EVERYONE to win.  We may not even realize the ways we’ve allowed assumptions and biases to shape our team’s culture. But they’re real. If we aren’t intentional about eliminating them, they can hamper the growth of our people – and the growth of our organizations, too.  Like every great leader, Dawn understands the power of a strong, diverse culture where everyone can win – and this conversation is full of practical ways YOU can build one. You’ll also learn: • Small ways our language can create gender bias in the workplace • Why you have to pay closer attention to your work culture, especially right now • What “office housework” is and what every leader needs to know about it  • Key insights into generational shifts in consumers • What every woman needs to hear before her next performance review Take your learning further.
