Michaela is a Canadian Millennial and a LinkedIn expert, having written dozens of articles that have received millions of reads. Her LinkedIn journey started in March 2016 when an article that she wrote about landing her dream job went viral. Over the past decade, Michaela has managed the online presence of more than 100 high-profile brands and built her own personal brand to over 140,000 followers on LinkedIn.
Michaela was one of the first people on LinkedIn to openly discuss mental health, self-esteem, and reporting harassment in the workplace. After her father passed away, she started a discussion around bereavement and how it affects your career. When she launched a video campaign on LinkedIn called #letsgethonest, encouraging professionals to share a challenge that they\\u2019ve had to overcome in their career \\u2013 the campaign reached over 26 million LinkedIn users.
Whilst our conversation mainly revolved around how to extract the most value from the LinkedIn platform, we talked about a number of other things too: from Michaela\\u2019s experience getting fired for reporting sexual harassment to self-confidence to dealing with rejection. I asked Michaela whether Millennials deserve the rap they\\u2019ve been given as entitled and needy \\u2013 and I found her responses eye-opening. I have two favorite quotes from this episode: \\u201cpeople don\\u2019t owe you a job\\u201d and \\u201ca career is a relationship\\u201d.
We recorded this show while Michaela was in Dubai, speaking at a CIPD Middle East conference \\u2013 so a huge thanks to Charlotte and the CIPD team for making this episode possible.
If you\'d like to get in touch with Michaela, you can find her on LinkedIn (obviously!) and\\xa0Instagram. You\'ll also find a bunch of free goodies on her website.\\xa0

Reshma Saujani committed her first act of bravery at the age of 33 when she ran for political office in New York. She lost \\u2013 badly.\\xa0Instead of being defeated by it, she was set free\\u2026 she discovered her bravery muscle and started to exercise it more. For example, she set up an NGO about coding when she knew nothing about start-ups \\u2013 or coding. Girls Who Code is a US non-profit organization working to close the gender gap in technology and change the image of what a programmer looks like. Reshma\\u2019s TED talk, "Teach girls, bravery not perfection," has more than four million views and sparked a national conversation about how we\\u2019re raising our girls. This led her to write her 3rd book "Brave, Not Perfect"
During our chat we discussed society\\u2019s impact on girls and what we could do differently. I asked Reshma for practical tools on how we ourselves could be braver. In fact, this was a great follow-on to the last When Women Win episode with Najla Al Midfa, which explored resilience: how can you build resilience unless you\\u2019re allowed to fail?
And finally, we talked about coding and how it cultivates bravery in girls and gives them permission to be less than perfect.
