http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Erika Irby, the Director, GTM Small Medium and Corporate Business, Americas at Microsoft, to explore how embracing your personal story can fuel your professional impact. Erika's energy, authenticity, and strategic insight lit up the conversation as we discussed storytelling, visibility, and fearless leadership—especially as women in tech.Erika's leadership journey began early—at just 17, she chose to stay behind and start college while her military family moved overseas. That moment, powered by grit and independence, set the tone for her lifelong mantra: "I will figure it out." Erika's resilience, her trust in the universe, and her ability to turn obstacles into growth moments have shaped an inspiring career across education, tech, and executive leadership.We also dug into the challenges women face with visibility, self-advocacy, and storytelling—especially in corporate environments. Erika emphasized the power of proactively sharing wins, creating a “walking deck” of your professional narrative, and boldly reaching out to people who can open new doors. Her message? Stop waiting. Own your story. Be strategic. Be seen.Key takeaways from the interview:0:01:15 – Erika's early independence—staying in the U.S. while her family moved abroad—instilled a lifelong sense of self-reliance and adaptability.0:02:25 – Her two personal mantras: “The universe provides” and “I will figure it out.” These guide her through both triumphs and setbacks.0:04:02 – Even when things fall apart—like losing a job or a relationship—there's purpose in the pain. Stay open to the redirection.0:07:01 – Erika's career path from teacher to tech leader highlights the power of transferable skills and trusting your evolution.0:09:23 – Confidence is built on owning your unique journey. Even a nontraditional background has tremendous value.0:12:01 – Diversity in leadership (gender, race, and background) isn't just fair—it's essential for innovation and AI inclusivity.0:14:33 – “Your work won't speak for itself.” Erika recommends monthly impact recaps to leadership—even if it feels bold.0:17:29 – Use AI tools like Copilot to amplify your voice—but remember, you are the pilot.0:18:55 – Don't just “like” on LinkedIn—add thoughtful context, tag mentors, and share your expertise to establish thought leadership.0:21:11 – Be bold and reach out to people, even if they're senior or don't know you. 80% of the time, they'll say yes.0:24:15 – Always have a “walking deck”—a personal presentation that shares your career highlights, aspirations, and values.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always!– Sheryl

I love to bring back great guests to our podcast, On the Brink with Andi Simon. Recently,  I had the pleasure of reconnecting with Nori Jabba, an insightful author, speaker, and advocate for empowering women through their communication skills. With her extensive experience and deep understanding of the challenges women face in leadership roles, Nori's insights are invaluable. In 2023, she joined our podcast to discuss her groundbreaking first book, Keeping Your Seat at the Table, which shed light on the unique obstacles women face in leadership and offered actionable strategies to overcome them. Women, It is Time to Master Your Voice Now she has a chapter in a new book, OWN YOUR STORY that is available today on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, among others. Her chapter is about how women have to go beyond finding their voice to mastering that voice. During our conversation, Nori shared her journey, highlighting the importance of resilience, confidence, and, most notably, the power of voice. Her work encourages women not only to find their voice but also to master it. This mastery, Nori argues, is essential for women to lead and influence others effectively. Her current research focuses on how the way women speak directly affects how they are perceived, heard, and followed in professional settings, providing practical strategies for improvement. One of the key takeaways from our discussion was Nori's exploration of "verbal mastery." Her latest work emphasizes that it's not just about speaking up but mastering how we communicate. Verbal mastery goes beyond just having a voice at the table. It's about how women can manage or lead depending on how they verbally present themselves—whether they speak with authority or empathy or engage others confidently or openly. This work is particularly relevant in today's professional world, where effective communication is one key essential to a woman's success. Why Mastery? People Hear What They Want To! In her chapter, Nori explains that verbal mastery matters in leadership because people hear what they want to hear. When women speak, others are constantly evaluating whether they trust them, whether they'll follow them, and whether they believe in what they're saying. The challenge for women leaders is to recognize this dynamic and adapt their communication accordingly, not only to be heard but also to inspire trust and command respect.
