Eileen Fisher on Embodied Leadership




Heroine show

Summary: Eileen Fisher is more than a strong, female leader. Eileen Fisher is an icon. Her clothes - and her signature style - soft, elegant, warm - are an entire way of life. But unlike many famous leaders, and especially many famous FASHION leaders, Eileen is not driven by ego. She is humble. Midwestern. The Devil Wears Prada...she is decidedly, NOT. Throughout our interview, I wondered, how can such a strong leader speak with such a down to earth realness? <br><br>Perhaps it’s because Eileen is an example of how to succeed well. As her brand continues to grow, she continues to reinvent. Instead of defining her business by how much money it makes, her company’s new parameter of success…. is sustainability. Her new mantra is do the most good instead of make the most money.<br><br>In a world where our political leaders deny climate change...and other painful truths such as a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body...all to hold on to power...I think we can all take something from Eileen’s example.<br><br>Live your values, show up, try. And remember that integrity is the only real currency we have in this world. <br><br>Alright, on to the show.<br><br>A BIG THANK YOU &amp; SHOUT OUT TO OUR BADASS PATRONS ESPECIALLY: <br><br>Bianca Wendt, an award-winning art director and graphic designer based in San Francisco and London.
