Season 6, Ep. 6: Susan Kim + Jenny Weeditz - Enthusiastically Understanding Your Business

Lifting Up: Lessons from Verizon Women Leaders

Jenny Weeditz (Associate Vice President - Global Corporate Security Operations) and Susan Kim (Finance Senior Director) bring unending energy to this episode of Lifting Up, where they share how they have earned the admiration and credibility of the business teams they support - and so many others. Despite sitting in two very different organizations - security and finance - they are united in their focus on authenticity, learning from setbacks, and delivering value - and a vision for what is possible.

• On confidence: “Some of the benefits of getting older and having experience is having more comfort and confidence in yourself and being self secure. And it allows you to be vulnerable…. And so when you start doing that, I think you're just natural, and people respond to your natural authenticity, and it feeds into that self. And then you just develop more credibility, and it builds trust.” - Susan Kim

• On collaboration: “it's a lot of negotiation, and making sure you're being the best version of you to get the best out of them.” - Jenny Weeditz
