Sustainable Ambition




Leadership is hard right now.

Maybe one of your intentions for this year is to grow as a leader. Maybe you’re questioning if you even want to be one.

For those who choose to be leaders, it’s important to set our intentions so that we can focus our efforts on making work better for ourselves and those around us. 

In this conversation, Harvard Instructor and leadership expert Margaret Andrews and I discuss why self-leadership is vital to then leading others, how to intentionally and sustainably cultivate new practices and behaviors, and why good leadership doesn't come from following a formula or fitting yourself into a box. It’s about becoming the kind of leader only you can be.

What is Sustainable Ambition?

How do you navigate the inevitable conflicts between work and life? Not just the daily schedules or mounting responsibilities, but the tensions between your ambition for your career and your ambition for life?

How do you decide what to prioritize and what to let go of? How do you decide when to speed ahead and when to ease up?

These aren’t questions of work-life balance or self-care. They’re questions we can answer when we get serious about intentionally designing a life with work that works for you.

Join Kathy Oneto, executive and life-work coach and founder of Sustainable Ambition, for conversations with experts, authors, and friends to explore sticky questions around navigating ambitious careers while integrating life with work, practicing sustainable work practices, and building resilience.

Most people assume that ambition and sustainability are mutually exclusive. Not so! Keep listening, and Kathy will make you a believer in Sustainable Ambition, too.
