"Why don't we share our success publicly...?" My team took me to task last week. 👩🏻 👩🏿 👩 👩🏽 As women, we often find ourselves navigating the delicate balance between staying in our lane, remaining humble, and not wanting to appear boastful. And last week, my team posed a question that sparked a powerful introspection: "Why don't we talk more publicly about our successes in executive search?" This got me thinking over the weekend about how humility, while a virtue, should not overshadow the achievements and skills of our teams, nor of ourselves. There's a thin line between humility and underselling the remarkable work we've done, especially in placing leaders for some truly iconic firms. For too long, I've associated sharing accomplishments with arrogance, asking myself, "Who do you think you are anyway?" But it's time to shed that self-imposed restraint and be genuinely proud of the accomplishments we've achieved together. 🚀 The Truth: Yes, We Place Leaders. Yes, We Manage Executive Searches. So, here it is, unfiltered and genuine – Integria Consulting has quietly been placing leaders at all levels, managing executive searches, and contributing to the success stories of renowned organizations. Hell yes, I am immensely proud of my team and the impact we've made. That's not boasting. That's just the truth. 😉 Laura Barwick Clara D'Alessandro Mandy Danko Reem Habiballa #humanresources #talentacquisition #executivesearch #leadership

What a fantastic week... Time well spent with our Global Field Leadership Team. First time ever to pull this group of leaders to one location and challenge, celebrate and break bread together. - 136 leaders. - 9 countries. - 16 different nationalities. - Age range from 24 - 50+ (no names!). - Equal gender split. The power of the group, and the diversity of our teams is humbling. Most importantly of all - the behaviors, personalities and aptitudes on display throughout the week have been exemplary. - A culture that celebrates team success over individual victories. - Humility enough to accept that no one brand, country or functional team is better than another. - Just a single commitment of collectively getting better…together. The organization, and our Fit for Growth strategy, is in great hands! We have 4 months of a very exciting fiscal year left to close. How well we execute will determine the success of the last 3 days. And I no doubt we will do great. Breaking through together as one united and powerful, extended Valiram leadership team. #FitforGrowth #LifeatValiram

🌟 *Reflecting on an Inspiring Leadership Meeting at Smart Joules* 🌟 I had the privilege of acting as an observer at our top management meeting. I left feeling incredibly energized and inspired by the commitment and vision shared by our leadership.

Healthy debates, mutual concerns addressed, and solutions-driven together. This openness builds trust and ensures alignment across the organization. 📍 Inclusion: One of the things I admire most about Smart Joules is how it values each employee's feedback. Leadership takes the time to get in touch with us and genuinely consider our valuable insights. This initiative empowers employees to understand and contribute to our goals.

You don’t lose your best talent by mistake. You lose them when you consistently promote the wrong people. Every time mediocrity is rewarded with a promotion, the message is clear: 'Hard work and results don’t matter here.' High performers are watching closely and when they see leadership that doesn't value excellence, they’ll quietly start looking for the door. It’s not just about turnover; it’s about the culture you create. Promotions should be earned, not handed out based on seniority or office politics. If you’re noticing a high exit rate, it might be time to re-evaluate your promotion process. Are you rewarding the right behaviors? Or Are you pushing your top talent away? #promotions #turnover #leadership

The Power of Purpose: Fueling Impact as a Chief of Staff Throughout my career, I've been fortunate to collaborate with inspiring leaders and organizations dedicated to making a real difference. The energy and passion found in purpose-driven work is undeniable. A shared sense of mission, deeply held values, and a collective drive to create positive change are incredibly powerful motivators. As a Chief of Staff, my role is to help translate that mission into tangible impact. This involves everything from developing and executing strategic plans to fostering a culture where innovation and collaboration thrive. It's about ensuring that every decision, every initiative, and every resource is laser-focused on advancing the organization's core purpose. Leading with purpose isn't just about feeling good – it's about achieving extraordinary results. When teams are united by a shared mission, they're more engaged, more resilient, and more likely to achieve breakthrough success. It's a privilege to play a part in that process. #ChiefOfStaff #MissionDriven #PurposeDriven #Leadership #SocialImpact #ImpactDriven #PositiveChange

Compassion is not about being soft. Compassion is not about being nice. Compassion is not about letting people off the hook because you want to avoid hurting their feelings. Hear Laurie Rebholz, Managing Director of Global Leadership Solutions at Citi, state this very clearly about compassion and bringing it into leadership, in a virtual event that was moderated by Robert Stembridge, Senior Partner and Global Head of Solutions at Potential Project a few weeks ago. #Compassion aka "care" is a widely misunderstood term in leadership. Potential Project's research shows that marrying compassion with performance is about doing the hard things of leadership in a human way, which can unlock the organization's potential for results, growth and talent retention. And people will genuinely enjoy showing up to work - growing, challenged, fulfilled and heard, because they are held with BOTH accountability AND care.
