What if 7-minutes a day was all it took to pivot your career entirely? Incremental changes that add up to life-changing differences... Dr. Cynthia Bentzen-Mercer and I discuss the concept of the seven minute pivot, a method for individuals to invest a small amount of time daily to create significant changes in their lives and careers. It's a fitting way to close our celebratory 200th episode week. The conversation explores Cynthia's career journey from broadcasting to human resources, her research into ambitious women, and the importance of intentionality in leadership. We also think about self-advocacy among women, the fallacy of equating years of experience with effectiveness, and the mental health implications of hiring decisions.
