Dr. Cheryl Pegus is a woman of firsts: first chief medical officer at Walgreens, first female chair of the board of directors for the Association of Black Cardiologists, and one of the nation’s most influential healthcare leaders and clinical executives. She’s also a basketball fan, comparing Caitlyn Clark’s journey to the WNBA to the hurdles women business leaders face. To cut the ribbon on The Inspiring Women Leadership Lab, Laurie and Cheryl talk healthcare, hoops and history. Cheryl also shares her hard-won wisdom, like not being afraid to start over, even when you’re at the top, and essential leadership tips on how to deliver bad news, how to listen, and how to prove you did the work you did.
