Menders: Love & Leadership in Healthcare
S3.E3. Pt 1: Leadership takes courage with Natalie Lamberton
Show Notes

Leadership takes courage.

Being a young healthcare CEO is a tough job. But it can be even more challenging (and isolating) for young BIPOC women. 

Natalie Lamberton shares the lessons she learned through this experience as a young black female CEO. She found mentors and models who inspired and empowered her to take ownership of this role. And she used grit and courage to find her voice as she learned to fully appreciate the weight of her responsibilities as a healthcare executive.

Listen to find out: 

  • How she connected with mentors who did not share her racial identity
  • What she does to model respect for people from every discipline in her organization
  • How you can act with intentionality to identify diverse leaders and empower them within your system
  • What strategies will help you to retain and develop your people for leadership roles


Bio: Natalie Lamberton is the CEO of Denver Springs Behavioral Health Hospital and co-author of The Emerging Leader: A field guide.
