From Ink to Insight and Influence (Feat. Julianna Newland)
Listen now
Description
Julianna Newland’s love for communication and language began early. An English and Political Science major, she served as the editor of her college newspaper for two years. This early passion translated into a lifelong career where writing played a central role. Even in grade school and high school, writing was a significant part of her life. After retiring, she decided to write a book, driven by her enduring passion for writing. Julianna's career in public affairs required extensive communication with lawmakers, governors, and their staff. She was the first female manager of public affairs in her department, an achievement that came with its own set of challenges. She shares her experiences of navigating a male-dominated industry and her insights into effective communication and self-advocacy are invaluable. Julianna discusses the persistent issue of the glass ceiling and the sticky floor in the workplace. She references a Harvard Business School study that highlights how male managers are more likely to promote other men, whereas female managers promote based on skill, irrespective of gender. She believes that women must advocate for themselves and seize opportunities to lead and showcase their skills. This week, you’ll learn the importance of talking things through to resolve conflicts, how to never be defined by a narrow box, and how “hangin’ in there” led Julianna to career success.
