EPISODE 56

The Future of Work, Family, and Life

How do leaders navigate conversations about the challenges parents, and especially women, face in the workplace? The first step is to simply have the conversation and get the shared perspectives of men and women. In this special episode from the How Leaders Lead Insight Series, Ashley Novak Butler, the Executive Director of the Lift-a-Life Foundation, interviews her dad, David, and Indra Nooyi about Indra’s new New York Times best-selling book, My Life in Full: Work, Family, and Our Future. Indra shares her story about growing up in India and the support she had to pursue her career while being a devoted mom, and the challenges she faced that she wants to remove for women coming up behind her in business, including problems with HR, childcare, and even cobblestone paths.

More from Indra Nooyi

Cultivate resilience before you take that stressful job
Thinking about a bigger leadership role someday? Create resilient habits now. That way, you’ll be ready for the stress and pressure of the job on day one.
The power of having diverse mentors
Don’t assume your mentor needs to be just like you. The more diverse your mentors are, the more perspectives you can learn from.
Call out bias when you see it
Workplace bias won’t change unless you address it. Speak up in the moment to hold people accountable, and you’ll create a culture of awareness and respect.
Handling one crisis makes the next one easier
Every crisis teaches you something new. The more you face, the faster you’ll recover from that initial panic and start leading confidently through it.
