Capacity-First Leadership
How ambitious women lead, decide, and show up when their brain, temperament, and body don't run on the schedule the workplace assumes.
Eleanor Hecks lives with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and after her diagnoses she realized that the usual business and leadership advice was leaving her more tired, frustrated, and alienated. Her new Hub column, Capacity-First Leadership, is written for the ambitious woman whose brain, temperament, and body don’t run on the schedule the workplace assumes, and it gets into how she leads, how she decides, and how she shows up. Eleanor pairs research with her own lived experience, and every piece is built to give you something you can put to work. Come meet her on the Hub.
After being diagnosed with multiple chronic conditions, Eleanor Hecks realized that common business and leadership advice just left her more tired, frustrated, and alienated. Now, she's passionate about helping other leaders and business professionals navigate the workplace while caring for their wellbeing and mental health. Her work combines research with lived experience to provide actionable insights to fellow women in the workplace trying to navigate life with a chronic condition.
