E306 | Most Shared E256 | Marsha Bartholomew: Life and Leadership Lessons From My Mom
If you’re like me, you often reflect on the things your parents, grandparents, or mentors have taught you.
But have you ever asked them what they’ve learned from you?
The answer may surprise you.
The life of Marsha Bartholomew has been no cakewalk. From the challenges she faced growing up with a no-nonsense family, to a young female professional in a male dominated work-force, to motherhood, and beyond - the lessons she’s learned along the way provide insight and value to people in every walk of life.
In today’s episode, my mom expands on her life experiences, including a 38 year career with the Social Security Administration. She speaks about:
- The leadership secret that AI will never be able to replace
- How she overcame challenges she faced as a woman in the workforce in the ‘70s
- The tactics she used to create an achievement driven culture in an extremely diverse department
- The best and worst advice she’s ever received

A Note on your Continuing Education:
What does your continuing education look like? Whatever conferences you’re attending, articles or books you’re reading, or online courses you’re crawling through, ask yourself - are you truly getting the applied value you’re seeking? As we walk into 2024, please consider stepping away from the same old conferences and clinics you go to year after year, and give us a chance to provide you with value that positively impacts you both professionally AND personally!
Get Involved with the Art of Coaching Community:
The Apprenticeship - our live Leadership and Communication Training Workshop.
When we say “leadership training,” we are not referring to cheesy corny trust-falls, motivational speak, or anything of the sorts. We are talking about the things that people say they wish they would have known earlier in their career and life - how to navigate difficult people and conversations, power dynamics, negotiations, and implement change.
If you deal with people-problems at all, if you’re in a leadership position or want to be in a leadership role, if you want LESS DRAMA - you need to get to this event! Check out our entire 2024 live event schedule for the best date and location for you!
