Have you ever felt labeled before you even had a chance to prove yourself - “not charismatic,” “too emotional,” or “not leadership material”?
If you’re a woman in tech who’s tired of being underestimated, this episode of From a Woman to a Leader will change the way you think about perception.
🎧 I sat down with Sylvie di Giusto — an international keynote speaker, bestselling author of The Image of Leadership and Discover Your Fair Advantage, and the world’s first 3D immersive keynote speaker to uncover how you can take control of the impressions that shape your career.
Together, we explore:
✅ Why people make up to 11 decisions about you in just 7 seconds (and how to use that to your advantage)
✅ The ABCDE framework (Appearance, Behavior, Communication, Digital footprint, Environment) to intentionally craft how you’re perceived
✅ Tiny behavioral cues that signal leadership—without faking who you are
✅ How your digital footprint can quietly open or close doors (and what to do about it today)
✅ The power of surrounding yourself with the right people—because your environment matters more than you think
Whether you’ve been overlooked, mislabeled, or just want to step into the perception of the leader you already are, this conversation gives you the tools to lead with confidence and be recognized for your true value.
🎧 Hit play if you’re ready to master perception and claim the opportunities you deserve.
