Check out the Lead With Your Brand! ERG Podcast Club.

It’s A great “rent-a-System” for your ERG programming!

 
 

We have assembled discussion questions so that your ERG can use the podcast as a virtual “podcast club” with no heavy lifting. It’s an easy way to connect with each other, have a great conversation and share your own career stories. It’s as easy as 1…2…3!

  1. Select a podcast episode or two that you’d like to focus on. We’ve included a couple of suggestions for each group. Feel free to explore the full collection of shows or the special collections below and find an episode that works for you.

  2. Send a link to the show to all of your ERG members and ask everyone to listen, schedule a Teams or Zoom call and make sure everyone has the link

  3. Use the discussion questions below and don’t forget to choose someone to act as the discussion leader!

Discussion questions:

• What leadership lessons or personal experiences shared by the podcast guests most stood out to you?

• Jayzen’s guests shared what has shaped their leadership brand. How has your diverse identity shaped your career aspirations and/or professional development?

• What is your “leadership brand”? How do you show up as a leader within your team, organization, or community?

• How would you assess your ability to maintain your authenticity? What challenges have you faced, and how have you navigated them? How do you avoid being pigeon-holed?

• How have your volunteer leadership opportunities, including any ERG roles, molded your leadership abilities? How does this supplement or complement your day job?
