Take Command: A Leadership Podcast · 2025-02-11 · 46 min
About the Guest: Ginni Rometty comes from a long line of hardworking women. First there was her great grandmother, who came from Belarus and cleaned bathrooms in the Wrigley building in Chicago. Next, it was her grandmother, a young widow twice over. Finally, there was her mother, who brought herself and her kids up through education and hard work after her husband abandoned them. Watching these women do what it takes to succeed instilled in Ginni a deep drive to be the best she can be and more. That’s why Ginni is the former chairman, president, and CEO of IBM. That’s why Ginni was named by Fortune magazine as the number one most powerful woman in the world for three years in a row. And that’s why Ginni’s new book, Good Power , is here to transform your life too. She says, “Hard work is a way to get ahead . . . It doesn't matter how bad it is, there's always a way forward.” Hear more about how Ginni moved her way to the top when you listen to this episode of the Take Command podcast.
