In this episode of Leading Ladies of Economic Development, Kaycee sits down with Dr. Tina Yerkes, an executive strategist, leadership mentor, speaker, and founder of Transformative Leadership Consulting. Tina left leadership to start a consultancy and write a book focused on helping women navigate workplace bias in male-dominated environments. Drawing on 30 years of experience—being talked over, dismissed, and denied proper titles despite her authority and education—she says she realized the problem is systemic, though change will take time. While waiting for organizations to catch up, she emphasizes mentors and individualized strategies that allow women to succeed without shrinking themselves or pretending to be someone else.-Kayce Bunch
