Episode 6 - Leading

What We See

My guest for this episode is the head of SuccessFactors for UK and Ireland, Leila Romane. From early ambitions of becoming a hairdresser, Leila's career has seen her climb the corporate ladder to become one of the most highly respected leaders in the enterprise technology industry.

Leila is charming and affable and it was a pleasure to sit down and speak with her about life inside and outside of the corporate world. Our conversation centered around three key areas:

1. Being a young female manager leading a team of older men
2. The characteristics of a successful leader how Leila develops and motivates high performing team
3. The future of of the technology sales rep

Managers and non-managers alike will take a lot from this conversation.

I'd like to thank Leila for being so generous with her time and for being open to share her experience and outlook with me and the loyal What We See listeners.
