About this listen
Ruby Yadav didn’t follow the traditional path to the top - and she didn’t pretend to fit in once she got there either.
From studying zoology to becoming CEO of Mercer, Ruby shares her unfiltered journey through executive leadership, risk, and resilience. She opens up about the pressure of being a migrant woman of colour in the C-suite, the career-defining moments that nearly derailed her, and why choosing kindness is a radical leadership strategy.
If you’re navigating leadership in complex, high-stakes environments - this one’s for you.
In this episode:
Why being the “unconventional choice” is often the most powerful position
The balance between telling the truth and being heard
What to do when integrity comes at a cost
Building safe, high-trust teams in environments that aren’t always safe
Mentorship, blind spots, and calling BS with love
Ruby’s message? Be good at what you do. Be kind to others. And don’t forget to be kind to yourself too.
