Glain Roberts-McCabe is the founder and President of The Roundtable, a company where leaders cultivate their leadership, together.
The Roundtable is best known for their group and team-based coaching and mentoring systems that help organizations break down silos, increase collaboration and accelerate business all while building leadership capability.
In 2014, The Roundtable was awarded a Gold Award by the Canadian Awards for Training Excellence in partnership with PepsiCo Foods Canada for their Roundtable for Leaders peer coaching and mentoring program and in 2016 they were named Best External Consulting Advisory in Canada at the Canadian HR Awards. In 2018, Glain was named one of Canada’s Women Entrepreneurs of the Year. All experiences were kind of like winning an Oscar but without having to wear sequins.
Glain is the author of the Amazon best-selling book ‘Did I REALLY Sign Up for This?!’, while her new book, 'The Grassroots Leadership Revolution', will launch in April this year.
Glain's personal mission is to inspire ambitious leaders to connect to their bigger purpose and passion so that work can be more fun and life can be more fulfilling.
I know I’ve said this so many times, and I’m happy Glain also liked the analogy: our skills are just like muscles! So, know them, know what muscles you’re counting on (maybe a bit too much?) and what muscles are painful for you to use. And then, train them all, regularly, just like at a skills gym. And just notice how you start to ‘think you are able’.
Books Glain mentioned:
Daniel Kahneman - 'Thinking Fast and Slow'
Liane Davey - 'The Good Fight'
