“Resilience can be taught, can be built, but it means doing things that are going to make you uncomfortable.” Resilience by Victoria Pelletier on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“A really important part of resilience is surrounding yourself with a community that is made up of coaches, leaders, and mentors who can help guide you through it, support you through it, and others who can understand and you can chat with.” Victoria Pelletier talks about having a support system on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“As leaders, it’s imperative for us to communicate in a very different way in terms of the transparency we need to have with people. That helps give a little bit of safety when there’s a challenge or transition coming, but it also means having deeper conversations with team members to understand and unpack what is making them feel that way, and sometimes I find it can be very superficial.” Victoria Pelletier talks about being a supportive leader on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.
