Resilience as a superpower; turning lemons into lemonade with Ashley Cox, Head of Europe and Senior Principal @ Eversana Consulting

04/25/23 • 52 min

What can I say, Ashley Cox and I have grownup in the Pharmaceutical industry together.
Since we first met over 19 years ago, and I hired her into the industry (I have a knack for identifying top talent!), it has been an absolute joy to see her career evolve and go from strength to strength.
Ashley now heads up the European region for Eversana Consulting as Senior Principal, and is the UK President for the Healthcare Businesswoman’s Association.
In this fun chat we reminisce, give advice to our younger selves, and explore all areas of Ash’s leadership career. The highs, the lows, and everything in between.
It was so much fun to record this interview, and it is an absolute joy to bring it to you, jam-packed full of insights and tips.
A few teasers:

Navigating redundancy and curve-balls at work
Giving yourself permission to be authentically you, and then finding the right environment to thrive
The importance of getting comfortable with discomfort
The value of having a coach, and building a robust support crew around you
How to support the next generation of talent in this virtual working world
Expanding your career horizons through networking and volunteering
The power of stepping back as a leader
Getting comfortable with the fact not everyone will like you

Plus so much more...
As always, I would love to hear what jumps out to you from this powerful conversation!
