About this audiobook

From the CEO of CVS Health and Fortune's #1 Most Powerful Woman in Business-an inspiring, authentic, and actionable road map for overcoming systemic obstacles to leadership Karen S. Lynch went from a childhood filled with loss and instability in a stark mill town in Massachusetts to leading one of the nation's largest health care companies, where she has been instrumental in transforming how people access affordable quality care. After being named CEO of the Fortune 500's sixth largest company, CVS Health, she is now the most powerful woman on that revered list. In Taking Up Space, she tells her trailblazing story-and delivers powerful lessons you can use to become the leader you're meant to be. Lynch explains how to use your voice and earn influence in places and situations that tend to shut you out so you can drive positive change. She shows how to create value in your organization by making your approach to businesses more personal and empathic-but still professional and accountable. How do you transform a company that may be entrenched and constrained by traditional outlooks and methods? The answers to this and other questions are in Taking Up Space.
