Summary
What does leadership actually look like in everyday life? In this episode of Branching Out with Sierra, Sierra Collins sits down with Della DeHaven, a Small Business Advocate and community connector, to explore a powerful but often overlooked form of leadership—supporting, connecting, and elevating others. After a 45-year career in corporate leadership, Della has stepped into a new season focused on helping people gain visibility, build relationships, and strengthen the environment around them. While much of her work centers on supporting small businesses, this conversation goes beyond that to uncover a universal leadership principle: when people are supported, seen, and connected, entire communities grow stronger. Together, Sierra and Della explore what it looks like to lead without a title, why connection is a form of influence, and how small, intentional actions can create meaningful impact over time. This episode will challenge listeners to rethink leadership—not as a position, but as a choice to show up, support others, and make a difference right where they are.https://www.womenofwinc.com/ https://www.sbfalliance.org/ https://regionalchamber.biz/ https://tinyurl.com/MaxwellMentoring101https://tinyurl.com/LittleRedBookofSelling
