Summary

You don't need to have it all figured out to be a great leader. Julie Sexton, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer at Land O'Lakes, joins the Cultivating Leaders podcast to talk about what leadership really looks like when you stay curious, get comfortable with ambiguity, broaden your perspective and trust the people around you. She reminds listeners that leadership is not about knowing everything. It is about asking better questions, developing others and having the courage to keep moving forward when the next step is not perfectly clear. Julie opens up about: * Enterprise-level leadership: broaden your experience, stay curious and get comfortable with ambiguity * Understand your commitments: the importance of knowing your ability, aspiration and commitment and shifting in different seasons of life * Coaching vs Telling: asking better questions to help teams think through the work Julie offers honest, grounded advice on navigating career growth, stepping into discomfort and learning to lead without pretending to know everything.
