Last night, Kamala Harris showed us what it means to show up for a job interview in front of the worlds biggest audience. Women who are interviewing for CEO positions take note: In a world where we’re often questioned or underestimated, she reminded us all what it looks like to stand in front of a search committee of 300 Million + voters, and rise above the noise and deliver—powerfully, unapologetically, and with grace. As women, we know that far too often we walk into interviews where our competence is questioned, where we’re held to a higher standard, and where we have to prove time and time again, that we’re not just capable but exceptional. Kamala Harris was a master class in what happens in an interview when preparation meets opportunity. She wasn’t just present; she was in command. She didn’t just perform; she excelled. And she didn’t just make a statement; she made an impact. So to all the women out there interviewing for CEO roles: Walk into that room with confidence and show them exactly how you would lead. Be bold, be fearless, and demonstrate that not only can you land the position, but you can excel and redefine what leadership looks like. Let's show the world that when women step up, we don't just take the job—we own it like no one else. #WomenInLeadership #LFG #KamalaHarris #Leadership #WomenEmpowerment #BreakingBarriers #WeGotThis

Written by a CEO who owns her leadership and models it for others to see. Like this post as one of many examples. ❤️

Leading by example is so important. Mentoring is important. She is doing both through her actions on stage and off. Too many women are so afraid to lose what they've built that they do not want to bring others along or fear being eclipsed so they don't mentor.
