Sue Conder - Business Change Advisor & Psychologist
Description
In this episode of Oakleaf’s Women in Leadership podcast, Sue Conder shares her inspiring career journey. Starting in Grantham Library, her interest in psychology sparked a passion for leadership and human behaviour.
Sue’s career spans management consultancy, consumer goods, finance, and coaching. As one of 7% of female partners at Arthur Andersen, she navigated a male-dominated culture with resilience, confidence, and strengths shaped by her dyslexia. “Once you know your strengths, people relax around you,” she shared.
She discussed imposter syndrome, undervalued communication styles, and the “hidden tax” of collaboration on women’s careers. Sue’s advice: build a “personal boardroom” of mentors and prioritise impactful relationships for growth.
This conversation offers practical insights for women aspiring to lead in challenging environments.
