Side Mirror: Lucy Ryan on why professional women over 50 leave their jobs at the top of their game - and what business leaders can do about it.
Description
For this episode I am joined by Dr Lucy Ryan who has a well-earned reputation as a wise, vibrant leadership coach and a voice that leaders take seriously.
Lucy is a senior lecturer at the University of East London and a visiting research fellow at the University of Liverpool.
With a master's in Positive Psychology and a PhD in Leadership, she has developed over 10,000 global leaders, blending psychology with practical, accessible guidance, encapsulated in her 2021 book, Lunchtime Learning for Leaders.
Lucy’s latest book “Revolting Women” offers a fresh and informed take on why professional women over 50 leave their jobs at the top of their game - and what business leaders can do about it.
In this book she draws on her PhD research and extensive experience of working with female leaders to challenge assumptions of women over 50 in the workplace and promote their strengths.
Revolting Women shows that assumptions about declining midlife motivation and energy just aren’t true for women and reveals how you can retain and develop this invaluable talent pool with a better understanding of their challenges and a few simple changes.
