“How you show up in the time of crisis...will be remembered for a very long time in terms of how organizations present this and what did you do to really support your colleagues and make sure that your culture and your environment was supportive.”

In this episode of the Moments with M3 Leadership Podcast, host Mary Malone McCarthy welcomes to the show Donna M. Hughes, JD, Chief People Officer at EmblemHealth. Today’s conversation is centered around three areas of leadership that Donna is most passionate about: servant leadership, inclusive leadership, and mentoring and coaching others. Donna explains how she uses her experience and learnings to strengthen others and how servant leadership continues to play an important role throughout the journey of her career. Learn how Donna clears the room at EmblemHealth with an inclusive environment where all are invited to contribute, and to have influence on coming up with solutions. Donna shares thoughtful insight on the difference between mentoring and coaching, and how both are vital to an organization’s growth and well-being. Finally, we conclude this episode with a discussion about the need for leaders to learn from the challenges of the past year and to continue to have lasting change by providing a supportive environment .
