LEADERSHIP Connector-in-chief Bridgette Bello's New Chapter

Season 2 Episode 2053 · May 22, 06:20 PM

Lunchtime Conversation host Nanette Wiser welcomes friend, journalist, leader and philanthropist Bridgette Bello to studio to talk about new chapter, designing the rooms where leaders make their next decisive move as connector-in-chief. We talk about the importance of gathering C-suite executives to share ideas, obstacles, solutions and how they pivot. "The culture of leadership is not built in public. It is cultivated in private, among those who understand its weight."

After three decades working alongside high-performing CEOs and founders, Bridgette Bello noticed a pattern: the leaders who shaped entire industries often had no peer group of their own. They had advisors. They had boards. But they rarely had a room where they could speak freely, be challenged honestly, and make better decisions because of it.
She served as President & Publisher of the Tampa Bay Business Journal — the first woman in the publication's history to hold the role — before founding Tampa Bay Business & Wealth, building it into one of the region's most influential business platforms.
Today, she is the Founder & CEO of The Executive Collective — a private convening platform for senior leaders navigating the most consequential transitions of their careers — and serves as a Senior Advisor at Windsor Capital, working with founder-led and middle-market companies navigating succession and business transitions.
