Style & Strategy: the leadership presence podcast for women in leadership who are respected for what they deliver and ready to be remembered for who they are.
I'm Sonya Choi La Rosa. I spent 25 years leading in corporate financial services, across technology, operations and change, and I know what it costs to bring only part of yourself into the room.
I've never believed presence is something you either have or you don't. It's built, from the inside out. Each episode works through who you are as a leader, how you show it, and the impact it has, with style as one of the ways it shows. This is leadership presence for women moving into bigger rooms.
