Can your beginnings define your future, or can you build a life beyond the labels others place on you? On Leadership 101, Tia A. Williams, founder and CEO of The Leadership Equation, shares lessons from nearly 30 years in technology and her work helping more than 10,000 people start or advance their careers in tech.
Tia discusses her upcoming book, Born a Statistic, Built to Be a Leader, and the experiences that shaped her approach to leadership.

She also describes becoming an executive, leading a global team of 100 people, and learning how to unite that team through intense competition.
This conversation explores leadership development, career growth, resilience, and the experiences that help shape a leader. Listen to Tia’s perspective on how people can move beyond expectations and become leaders in their own right.
