Heidi Ridley is Co-Founder and CEO at Radiant ESG, based in the Bay Area of California.  She has had a long career in asset management, including roles as CEO of Rosenberg Equities, a division of AXA Investment Managers, global head of client service and head of North America institutional sales.  She is a member of the Advisory Council at the Center for Equity, Gender and Leadership.  Our conversation tracks Heidi's entry into investing and how she rose through the ranks to become a C-suite leader.  We discuss what true leadership really means and how her early career grit and determination contributed to her own trajectory. Heidi is now also a founder, and her vision for Radiant ESG is a unique one.  We examine what motivated her to launch her own firm and some of the challenges that they encountered due to the prevailing market backdrop but ultimately overcame.A key takeaway of this podcast that I won't forget is recasting the image of a bull in a china shop.  Whereas this is typically a negative image, I have now re-imagined it as a determined, ambitious force within an organization that may, initially, resist being shaken up.  My conclusion is that our industry needs a lot more of them.
