Bonnie Hammer on Becoming the Queen of Cable, Dreams that Keep you Stuck, and Why It’s Never a Permanent “No”

Legendary media executive Bonnie Hammer sits down with host Diana Maria Riva to talk about how she went from pooper-scooping after a Hollywood stunt dog to becoming Vice Chairman of NBCUniversal and the “Queen of Cable”. As Diana dives into Bonnie's best seller 15 Lies Women Are Told at Work: And the Truths We Need to Succeed, they discuss how chasing a childhood dream can keep you stuck and why the career ladder is more of a spider web. Bonnie shares her perspective on “ageism” in the work place, how the “tougher and nastier” mindset can backfire for women, knowing your professional self worth, and has a frank discussion with Diana on not holding back with exploring greater opportunities. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
