Episode Description
In this week's episode we will be joined by La June Montgomery Tabron, President and CEO of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, along with her executive coach and colleague, Dr. Paul Martinez. As a champion for vulnerable children and for creating the conditions necessary for them to thrive, Tabron leads the Kellogg Foundation, one of the largest private foundations in the U.S., and its work to support thriving children, working families and equitable communities. In short, the Kellogg Foundation's goal is to create sustainable, transformational change. Together, La June and Paul are also walking the path of transforming of The Kellogg Foundation itself. We will be in conversation with them about leading transformation from the inside out, some lessons learned along the way, and what has been required of them personally to bring the vision to life. This will be a conversation not to be missed about making the choice to lead.

The world is changing and our beliefs about leadership need to change with it. On this show we reveal the simple, yet profound, truths we have learned from horses that will prepare you to lead confidently in the direction of your future. In the world we lead in, clarity is more powerful than force. We reframe uncertainty, offer you ways to find confidence in uncertainty, and reimagine leadership for the world we live in today. We explore ways to use attention, direction, energy, and congruence to elevate confidence in your leadership.
