In this episode, we sit down with Kath Kennedy, the General Manager of Supply Chain at Beiersdorf — the company behind brands like Nivea and Elastoplast.

It's more about how you show up and recover when challenges hit.This conversation gives a real glimpse behind the scenes of senior leadership — not the polished version, but the real day-to-day decisions, the pressure, the pace, and what it really takes to stay grounded and effective.Kath's honesty, humour, and down-to-earth nature make this a really insightful and inspirational episode.Links we talked about on the podcast include:Kath Kennedy on LinkedIn RISE AccelerateFree Guide: The Ultimate Guide to Saying No⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Like this episode?

Elevate. It's a terrific word Elevate, isn't it! If you've attended my programs, you will hear me say things such as ‘that style of conversation will elevate you”, and  “You will feel more elevated if you…”.  I use it because I love the idea of elevating the women I work with. In this podcast, I am joined by two incredible women who have taken that thought to a whole new level. In fact, they have written a book called Elevate, their word of the year is elevate and elevating others is their mission.Shannah Kennedy, who you might remember from an earlier podcast, is a legendary life coach. It was an awesome episode because there is something super special about Shannah – in that episode, we talked about everything from 20-year life plans, vision boards, building resilience, how to refuel and so much more. I will leave a link to Episode 18: The YOU in your career in the show notes.Since doing that podcast together, Shannah has collaborated with a fantastic leader, Colleen Callander. Now let me tell you about Colleen. Colleen has been among the 19% of female CEOs in the Australian business sector - I try not to go about the disappointing data and representation of senior women but 19% isn't much – so huge KUDOS to Colleen. She was a CEO for 13 years, leading two iconic Australian fashion brands, Sportsgirl and Sussan. Together, Shannah and Colleen bring a natural synergy. They are a dynamic duo and their business is called Human Elevation. In this episode, you'll discover more about their mission, and insights on what it means to elevate yourself. We'll chat about their new book, Elevate and more.They both exude incredible energy, making our conversation a delightful one. So let's dive right in and meet these wonderful ladies.Your Brilliant Career is a podcast by Gillian Fox - executive coach, women's career expert and entrepreneur.

Style plays a pivotal role in our lives, particularly when it comes to nurturing a brilliant career. Style is the means through which we present ourselves. It's our mode of self-expression, a channel for communicating who we are to the world and how we choose to show up. In this episode, I am entering controversial territory, to talk about style from the perspective of the way we dress and style ourselves – which some will say is irrelevant, shallow, or simply unimportant. But, I want to talk about it from the perspective of your career and how I believe style can be a potent tool. Your Brilliant Career is a podcast by Gillian Fox - executive coach, women's career expert and entrepreneur.

Have you ever found yourself putting others on a pedestal at work? They appear more experienced, exude confidence and are brilliant at what they do.

Do you know how to be strategic at work…. and how to demonstrate your strategic acumen? My experience is that a lot of women are told they are not strategic enough. And this concerns me.So often I hear through my coaching and programs that capable women are described and seen as operationally excellent – yet they are often seen as lacking the capacity to be strategic. In this podcast, I am going to talk about why you need to understand the buzzword strategy, how you can develop your strategic acumen and practical ways you can be seen as strategic at work.Presenter: Gillian FoxLooking for more?  Visit...yourbrilliantcareer.com.auFacebookInstagramLinkedIn

Today I want to talk about a pain point that many women experience in business, and it is the challenge of speaking with senior leaders. Now, as a women's career expert and executive coach, I hear from women all the time that it is important to them to do this well, but they lack the confidence and capability in their application. They know that their meetings, their interactions with senior leaders represents a great development opportunity for them. It's great visibility, all of those things, but they're not sure how to make a great impression when speaking with those senior leaders. So if you relate to that in any possible way and you want to just build some credibility and confidence with senior stakeholders, then this episode is for you. I'm going to share four insights that I think are very practical, something you can go and do and work on immediately, that will help you impress senior leaders in your business. Presenter: Gillian FoxLooking for more?  Visit...yourbrilliantcareer.com.auFacebookInstagramLinkedInFREE GUIDE: How to communicate confidently with senior stakeholders

My guest on this podcast episode is Irene Falcone. Following a successful career in the media industry, Irene built two incredible companies, one of which she sold for $20 million - and she only had that business for four years! Today, Irene  is the Founder and Director of  Sans Drinks, which sells non-alcoholic beverages. Remember the pandemic where we all drank too much? Well, Irene emerged in 2020 post the worst of the pandemic with this company. She too wanted to cut down…  She really did hit that crisis moment, thinking I just want to stop drinking or reduce my drinking and this led her to explore her non-alcoholic drink options, of which there were few and far between.There is plenty to explore with Irene. I want to share with you how she built her businesses, her career prior to that, and how she defines herself. She is full of energy, enthusiasm and surprises, and there are a lot of interesting twists and turns in this conversation.

They are women that have attended the RISE program and, in my mind, have really used the program experience to progress their careers.I really think you'll love listening to Sarah and Shihara today. They will share some of the interesting moments in their own careers, how they are thinking about things, what's been hard and what they got from the RISE program experience.

How often do we throw away our power? How often do we fall into the trap of letting other people decide our worth and value and mostly because we default to pleasing or wanting to be liked or avoiding upsetting someone? I'm joined by Kemi Nekvapil - executive and personal coach for female leaders, global speaker and author of Power - A woman's guide to living and leading without apology. We will be talking about her book, which I cannot  speak highly enough of. She has done an extraordinary job of redefining POWER to make it feel both accessible and enticing.What I personally have come to really admire about Kemi is her ability, and it's very much a conscious choice, to rise above the small stuff. Her motivation is far bigger than most people's motivation. She is driven by a social awareness and a desire to make the world a better place. When you spend time with someone like this, it's hard not to think about what is happening outside your little own microcosm, the impact of your behaviour and even what else is possible.  Presenter: Gillian FoxGuest: Kemi NekvapilLooking for more?  Visit...yourbrilliantcareer.com.auFacebookInstagramLinkedInFREE GUIDE: How to say no

I love women talking about money, wealth creation, finances – it all delights me because we don't talk about money enough!On average, as a gender, we retire with half the super balance of men. Now that is not great if you have the misfortune of being divorced later in life. Now compound this, with the fact that statistically we are likely to live longer than men and we earn less.My guest on this podcast is the beautiful and talented, Molly Benjamin. Molly is helping women in the most extraordinary way. She is educating them and changing lives – and there's no judgement with her approach – you can have the most limited knowledge and Molly helps you make sense of it all.

How Much of Your “Authentic Self” Should You Really Bring to Work? We hear bring your authentic self to work EVERY day but what does that really mean? This is what I will be exploring with Jocelyn Turner, Executive, Customer Resolution and Remediation at NAB.  The focus of the discussion today is authenticity. I think it's an apt one because Jocelyn, to me, is a very authentic leader. She encourages it in others – she has a team of about 1000 people at NAB. Now that's a lot of people into inspire, don't you think?So today we're going to be talking about authenticity at work. What it is, what it isn't and hopefully you'll get the chance to walk away with some new and helpful thoughts around what is being authentic for you. And we all want to be authentic, right? It's too much hard work trying to be someone else.

Women fear more about how they might be perceived in a negotiation. Because as much as we still don't want to believe that women are treated differently in negotiations to men, we are, because there's a huge social culture and expectation on us as women on how we're supposed to behave.I'm delighted to have Glin Bayley as my guest on this podcast.Glin's journey began in 2014, when due to personal circumstances, her life was turned upside down. At that time, she was questioning everything – even asking, 'Is this it?' 'Is this the life that I always dreamed of?' She knew it wasn't. She knew there was more. So she courageously followed her heart to the other side of the world. She left the UK and she travelled here to Australia.Then she made another bold move. After 17 years of working as a senior executive in the finance industry, she started her own business. This is how she became an expert in salary negotiation, helping mostly women ask for more money.Thank goodness Glin made that leap of faith because she knows what it takes to get the money you deserve.
