   How often do you find yourself talking (and really listening) to someone who doesn’t share your beliefs? For Jessica Tarlov, it’s her full-time job. Jessica is one of the only liberal panelists on The Five at Fox News and the author of the new book I Disagree: Winning Arguments Without Losing Friends. In this episode, Anne sits down with Jessica at an event for the Leadership Now Project in New York City to reflect on what Jessica has learned during her time at Fox News and how we can bridge political divides in America by disagreeing more skillfully. Jessica explains why she’s stopped trying to change minds in favor of opening them and answers questions from the audience about how to create connections across differences and beat an algorithm built to fuel fear and anger.

   Most of us believe that if we’re not talking, we’re listening. But there’s a lot more to listening than just hearing what another person has to say.

   With great power comes great responsibility…and the chance to reflect on what we’ve learned from people who wield it well. In this episode, Anne and Frances look back on their conversations with Kara Swisher, Deborah Gruenfeld, Mrs. Dow Jones, and Hubert Joly about how power at work really works. They dig deeper into why telling the truth to yourself and others is such a strong power move, revisit Hubert’s “currency converter” framework for understanding how power manifests differently in different people, and celebrate the power of graceful leadership. They also share what they’re doing differently after having these conversations, and return to a message that echoed across the series: you already have more power than you think. Lees meer

   Throughout the Unlocking Your Power at Work series, Anne and Frances have uncovered practical advice for gaining power, building influence, and unleashing the abilities you already have. But once you make it to the top, what do you do with all that power? Hubert Joly is a professor at the Harvard Business School and the former CEO of Best Buy, where he led one of the most celebrated corporate turnarounds of the past decade. In this episode, Anne and Frances sit down with Hubert to dissect his belief that sharing your power and empowering others is the key to strong leadership. Hubert shares the story of how he helped bring Best Buy back from the brink and what he learned from listening to employees on the front lines. He also makes the case for why leadership is more important than ever in a world of AI, and that AI is most powerful when it amplifies “human magic.” Anne and Frances ask Hubert some questions from listeners struggling to share power as leaders, and explore how men and women respond differently to being offered powerful leadership positions.

In this episode, she joins Anne and Frances to demystify how power actually works at work, why people underestimate their own power, and how to use the power you already have more skillfully.
