Hosted by Wayne Clarke, CEO of World Class Manager who have developed over 250,000 managers globally. A live, unfiltered conversation with Martha Harvey-Jones, Co-CEO of Leathwaite, on what it really takes to build a career to the top of finance leadership.
The complete unedited conversation covering career journeys, inflection points, hard-won wisdom, and live Q&A from viewers across the globe.
Having an opinion is better than not having one at all. If you're always going to say 'I agree with you', you lose credibility. Actually, challenge creates the opportunity for people to stand up and listen.
Martha's path from Robert Half to co-leading a global search firm wasn't a straight line, and that's the norm for most C-suite leaders.
Being brilliant at finance gets you to a point. Breaking through requires commercial acumen and the ability to tell the organisation's story.
The best leaders create environments where people can challenge and speak up. Having an opinion matters more than being right.
Your network isn't just who you know. It's who knows your work. Personal brand on LinkedIn is now non-negotiable.
The most talented professionals hit ceilings when they stop evolving. A fixed mindset limits your trajectory at every level.
ACA, ACCA, CPA: at senior level, what matters is commercial impact, leadership capability, and how you see the world.
