Victoria Day: Leaning Into Vulnerability for Increased Happiness and Productivity for the Whole Team
Show Notes

In this episode, I speak with Victoria Day, MD at Ogilvy.

Join us whilst we discuss how we as leaders need to stop accepting bad behaviour from
talented people and the importance of always treating the junior team members with respect and kindness.

We also delve into the topic of vulnerability and how showing vulnerability as a leader creates a safe place for other people to be vulnerable and truly bring their whole selves and all of their ideas into the workplace.

● The importance of vulnerability in an industry that rewards people that are
“bullet-proof”
● The role of mothers in leadership and the feeling that you can’t speak about your
children or you’ll be seen differently or as incapable of doing your job
● Taking action that will make a difference to the people you want to help

Victoria leads the Advertising, Brand & Content business at Ogilvy UK as Managing Director. She has over 20 years' experience partnering with clients to drive impact and is zealous about the power of creativity to drive growth.
