We're excited to share the latest episode of the Listening with Leaders podcast, featuring our CEO Christa Quarles. Christa joins Douglas Noll for an honest conversation about leadership, lifelong learning, and how curiosity and authenticity can help leaders build stronger teams and make better decisions. 🎧 https://lnkd.in/emWGe7Cz
What does it take to move through Wall Street, Disney, OpenTable, Nextdoor, private equity, and enterprise software and get sharper with every stop? On the latest episode of Listening with Leaders, Doug Noll sat down with Christa Quarles, CEO of Parallels, to talk about the one skill that carried her through every career pivot: asking questions relentlessly until she actually understands what's driving a business, a negotiation, or a person. They also got into the moment she realized she'd spent years leading like the toughest man in the room to survive a cutthroat industry, and what changed when she finally led as herself. Plus: the real difference between positional power and personal power, and why only one of them builds something that lasts. If you're leading a team, a company, or yourself through change right now, this one's worth the listen. 🔗 Full Episode: Link in the comments 🎙️ Want to be a guest on the podcast?
