Leadership isn’t always about becoming more confident. It’s about becoming more self-aware.
In this episode of Leadership Rounds, physician executive Dr. Reena Pande sits down with Sheila Gujrathi, MD (multi-time biotech CEO, board leader, and best-selling author) for a candid conversation about leadership beyond credentials. Drawing from her book The Mirror Effect, Sheila shares her journey from academic medicine to McKinsey, Genentech, and the C-suite, unpacking why fear, insecurity, perfectionism, and shame often intensify (not disappear) as leaders rise. Together, they explore how to recognize toxic work environments, negotiate with integrity, and show up fully and authentically, especially when the stakes are high.
A must-listen for clinician executives, founders, biotech leaders, and anyone rethinking what real power looks like.
You’ll learn:
Why technical excellence stops being enough in leadership roles
How to recognize toxic work environments (and leave or work to improve them them sooner)
What executive presence really means (without losing authenticity)
How to negotiate compensation, authority, and influence without apology
Why self-awareness is the foundation of real power
