As you grow in your career, your technical skills matter—of course they do. But what people remember, respond to, and rally behind is your leadership identity. It's the way you show up, the presence you carry, the influence you have, and the story others tell about you when you're not in the room. And the leaders who thrive are the ones who shape that identity with intention, not by accident.

My special guest today is Shayna Davis, and she's simplifying how to define your leadership identity. If you want to lead with more clarity, consistency, and confidence—while staying true to who you are—this conversation is for you.

Here's how.

• The real difference between executive presence and executive influence—and how both shape how others see your leadership.

• What a "leadership narrative" is, and why rising leaders must define theirs early.

• Where to begin when intentionally shaping your leadership identity—and how to clarify your unique POV, thought leadership, and personal narrative.

• The common missteps leaders make when trying to project authority or influence, and how to avoid coming across as inauthentic.

• …and ultimately, how to evolve your leadership identity over time without losing consistency or confusing your teams.

It's time to #DoTheThing!
