- Derived from Reagan's own experience as a successful corporate executive and her nationwide qualitative research study, this talk explores the societally driven beliefs that reveal themselves in women's relationships at work and prevent them from accelerating into senior roles. It uses heartfelt stories, real-life examples, and an original framework to illustrate what women can start doing immediately to move from self-concious to self-confident by practicing "Relational Courage. Reagan Cannon is a dynamic speaker and coach with over 20 years of experience at Amazon and AT&T who empowers career focused women to become high-impact executives. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Although I am not a woman, and can't fully identify with the challenges that come with being a woman in the workplace, I can relate to being "the only" in the room. It's hard. What a great video to remind me to keep tackling that confidence complex...
From lived experience, this is so very true. Thank you for such a clear articulation of the problem. Knowing about, and then practicing relational courage is so important to breaking down the internal barriers that prevent us moving forward.
This is pertinent and powerful. Thank you for sharing your experience and empowering us! Relational courage--so important and seemingly simple but is counter-intuitive to messages that we have adopted as truth over the years that have stifled us or crippled us with unnecessary fear. I appreciate the work that you are doing!
This is absolutely awesome!!! Relational Courage is exactly what is needed to combat what I’ve spent years thinking of as “the little lady” complex! You lead that revolution, Reagan!!! 🔥🔥🔥
One of the most genuine leaders I know, speaking about the path to promotion for women! For all the coaches, champions of women, and women this is a must watch!
I remember talking to you several years back about some professional challenges I was facing. I knew then you were on to something! This is so amazing. Thank you for all you do, Reagan!
Thank you Reagan, probably the 15 minutes where I learned the most about what it takes to progress in today's corporate world. You made me reflect on my own experiences, and on how my most difficult boss (a woman) pushed me way out of my comfort zone to stop being that "good boy" to demonstrate relational courage. I will definitely share this talk with my team and some of my mentees!
I loved hearing Reagan give this talk in person, and listening to it again here. I have followed rules my whole life and now that I’m considering breaking into higher leadership, I realize I need to work on my relational courage. Thank you for this, Reagan!
"Relational Courage" - this is brilliant, Reagan! Kudos to you for coining this term that is sure to become part of our professional culture and common business vernacular (at least in the companies I want to work for, and partner with) through this movement you're starting. This is spot on, and you're really on to something! It's profoundly simple, yet it takes a visionary like you to make it SIMPLY PROFOUND. Thank you for your leadership in this area of great need - which happens to be my great passion as well - helping women excel and soar into positions of leadership to change the world!
Great talk! This should be required watching in professional leadership development courses!
To me, what you are describing, is honesty. As in showcasing your true beliefs instead of hiding them away in case they might make waves. Ive come to believe that showing your true beliefs gets you the most respect. However, showing those beliefs at first requires a lot of courage.
Reagan, a round of applause 👏👏👏 and a huge thank you for these words of inspiration! As a people-pleaser and risk-averse type, your message on “relational courage” is exactly what I needed to hear. As women, we’re often told “don’t make waves, don’t be the squeaky wheel, don’t be abrasive/emotional, don’t try to fix what’s not broken (even when we know it can be improved)” and so on. We sit back and remain passive instead of having the courage to lean in and make a difference. It’s intimidating to know we will sometimes fail, but as long as we are learning and growing from those failures we’re bettering ourselves.
“The worst that can happen” almost never comes to be, so shifting our mindset to “what’s the best that can happen” is sound advice for any situation in one’s life. Thank you for the reminder and I look forward to hearing more from you!
Thank you Reagan for this talk. It hit home on a personal level. We need to empower more women in the workforce to practice, Relational Courage.
Wonderful job 👏 🙌 👌 love your message. So empowering.
Inspiring and practical. I see post it notes popping up all over the place. Well done Reagan!
Love this! Such a moving speech and powerful message, Reagan! As a former Toastmaster I must also say, stellar delivery!!
Incredible content and delivery, Reagan! These examples are wonderful and something I will continue to reflect and act on as a leader. Thank you for continuing to share your inspirational examples!
It's amazing to see that women at all levels, all kinds of careers would have similar issue. I also have the problem of not able to let my team stand on their own, afraid of being wrong, and hold myself back to not bother other people. Next goal: finding my relational courage. Thanks Reagan for the inspiring sharing
This is very real. It feels like I know I am holding myself back but not sure I move forward. Thank you for this talk!
So insightful to hear recommendations backed in research that impacts women and men being successful in the work world! Thank you Reagan!
Excellent discussion Reagan! Love the personal examples you incorporated throughout the discussion. You are so relatable and you nailed how so many of us have felt throughout our careers. Your greatest strength is developing others and coming up with strategies that elevate a team. Cannot wait to watch what you do next!!!!!
Relational courage is such a great goal in so many areas of life!
I believe we need to promote more women as bricklayers, since this profession is over saturated with men.
Really great content and this speaker is AMAZING!!! What wonderful information for women in the corporate world experiencing frustrations about not being promoted and wonderful action items for changing that narrative - RELATIONAL COURAGE!!!
Such valuable and practical advice. Thank you for sharing actionable steps each of us can take in order to unblock ourselves.
Amazing content Reagan. I loved the example of how girls are taught to be "good girls". Also, girls learn relationships and behavior in the classroom and boys on the playground. I have been and will continue to share this talk with all my girlfriends. Thank you so much for your courage!!
Reagan just addressed a problem that has baffled women in business for decades! Her presentation is woven together with engaging storytelling, transparency, and hard earned expertise. She has taken something seemingly so complex and broken it down to a powerful, simple principal. Take a listen - it will definitely shift your perspective and potentially your career!
Great talk!
I loved this. It is speaking about how women can get promoted, but It speaks to me personally as a leader. Relational Courage!!!!!! We all need it! But it was really helpful for me also as someone who supervises women and wants to see them advance and be everything God has created them to be.
Too true and especially like the note to speak out but keep balance. We also won’t accept too forthright. The key will be how one does it
Amazing advise for all women!👍👏👏
A well-spent 15 minutes! Every female professional should take a moment to watch!
I love this as I can relate personally. This is transformative. I love the positive message
Great content Reagan. Thank you for bringing this discussion to the masses. Changing perspectives changes diversity in the workplace. Be brave, and share feedback!
Amazing advice as always! Every person entering the work force should view this video!
Very powerful information! Love it!
woman can pass their "motherhood" phase but could never skip their "menopause" hardship that really matter their career..Lets discover how to treat women after these failure "industry capitalism" had done...
Algorithms too. They scan resumes for key words and recognize feminine grammar.
Don't be a nice girl at work. 😘
If only I had heard this at the beginning of my career 40 years ago!!! Reagan is a woman to follow!
