Under her guidance, Real Leaders has evolved into a platform that champions the voices of underrepresented leaders and promotes the integration of social good into business strategies. Julie’s journey in a male-dominated field has equipped her with unique perspectives on leadership that every aspiring leader can learn from.The Vision Behind Real LeadersWhen Julie joined Real Leaders in 2010, the landscape was vastly different. She credits the magazine's founder, Mark Van Ness, for recognizing a crucial gap in leadership representation. He saw that decision-makers were often older white males and believed that new voices needed to be included in the conversation for meaningful change. Julie resonated with this vision, emphasizing that both gender diversity and a broader representation of voices are essential for driving innovation in business.
