Sharon Fiehler is a former Fortune 500 c-suite executive and founder of ABC to CEO. In this episode Lauren and Sharon discuss: Key traits of successful CEOs Importance of working for an organization where you feel comfortable Strategies to overcoming challenges in male-dominated industries The difference between staff roles and line roles  Key takeaways:To excel in a position, ensure that you are culturally fit for the organization; perceive yourself as a member of the team; and never isolate yourself. Participate in conversations with teammates to gain trust, connect, and show that you have something to offer. To demonstrate your competence as a leader, and especially as a CEO, guarantee that there is trust between yourself and your colleagues and show confidence so your team isn’t questioning whether you are the person to follow. To progress to the top, it’s important for women to get into line roles (sales / operations) early in their career (mid 30s) that have profit and loss (P&amp;L) responsibilities. The most successful CEOs have been on both sides of the fence (in both line and support roles) and understand the importance of staff roles in supporting critical line roles. Focus on finding mentors, supporters, and sponsors – someone who will give you guidance on your performance or improvement areas (interpersonal or hard skills).  Be active and prepared during meetings to showcase what you know and what you are made of to gain promoters.  “Raise your hand for a promotion – You learn things while you are doing it, you don’t have to be 80% compatible for a promotion to be promoted. Don’t be afraid to take on something new.”  - Sharon FiehlerReach out to Sharon at: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharon-fiehler-b8a363b5/ABC to CEO Website: https://www.abctoceo.com/Reach out to Lauren at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenherring/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LaurenHerringCareerExpertTwitter: https://twitter.com/laurenherringIMPACT Group Website: www.impactgrouphr.comEarn Your Worth Website: www.earnyourworthcareers.comIMPACT Group LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impact-group/Earn Your Worth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/earn-your-worth-careers/Get the book, Take Control of Your Job Search here:Paperback Book: https://amzn.to/3tibaCzebook: https://amzn.to/3dk4Cy5
