Episode #15: Kimberly Benoit: How Do You Show Up?

I loved having Kimberly J Benoit on the show. She believes we all bring our own “BS” to the workplace buffet so kicking toxic cultures has to start from the inside out. Known for The We’ve All Done It™ Framework, Kimberly is a leadership & workplace toxicity expert who coaches, consults, and speaks for organizations needing fresh strategies to keep great leaders, unite teams, and combat toxicity. As the bestselling author of the book, “We’ve All Done It,” and host of the podcast of the same name, she’s on a compassionate, sometimes humorous mission to help us get real about the role we each play in creating toxic workplaces, so we can become more confident leaders, teams, and organizations in the process. We talked about her 20+ years leadership journey in Fortune 50s to small nonprofits, how she’s overcome bias and navigated the difficulties of conflict and toxicity which led her to writing her book. She also shares sage advice on what’s right is not necessarily easy, and doing the work is hard but rewarding.
