Alicia Menendez is a Writer, MSNBC Anchor, and Advocate for Women in the Workplace. She is the author of "The Likeability Trap: How To Break Free and Succeed As You Are".
Alicia shares a Why Not Now? moment that effected every aspect of her life, career, and those she was working with. She explains the questions she asked herself, and the process she applied, to see if the "risk" was worth it to potentially put her career in jeopardy, which led her to drill down on what she actually wanted out of her next career move.
She discusses losing and gaining momentum and being open to putting a few opportunities, and side gigs, together to lay a foundation for your next move.
Alicia has been described as "unflusterable". She talks through her methodology when she starts to feel flustered, and how you can use her tools in your own day.
Alicia gives an overview of her book "The Likeability Trap" and how we look at "likability" in today's society, specifically when it comes to women in the workplace.
You'll learn why there's a call for authentic leadership in the workplace, and how we can do better as a culture to reckon with the idea of likability as a cover for bias.
You'll learn how you can create meaningful feedback and evaluations that take a 360-degree approach to incorporate opinions of many, versus the opinion of one, and how you can ask better questions when receiving feedback.
Alicia also shares her thoughts on branding, and why you don't have to be all things to all people to be a brand, as long as you are authentic to yourself and are known for what you want to be known for.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
