195. Navigating Leadership with Gratitude

In this episode of the Visibility Factor podcast, host Sue Barber reflects on the importance of gratitude, especially during the Thanksgiving season. She discusses how gratitude can help shift mindsets from negative to positive, but also highlights the challenges it poses for those struggling with imposter syndrome. Drawing insights from Kim Meninger's Forbes article, Barber emphasizes the need for individuals to acknowledge their contributions to their successes rather than attributing them solely to external factors. The conversation also touches on the importance of effective communication in leadership and provides resources for personal growth and visibility.
