Bushwhacking a Path to Leadership with Emily Buckley

Emily Buckley is a COO at Cliff’s Climbing + Fitness, a CrossFit Games Athlete, and an outdoor enthusiast. She has over a decade of multi-unit experience across a broad spectrum of fitness modalities. From Kickboxing, to CrossFit, to Rock Climbing, she's done it all: mopping floors, instructing classes, managing teams across multiple units, and currently running the operations of a multi-million dollar company.

As a true believer in having a growth mindset, Emily is currently enrolled in Harvard Business School's Executive Education for High Potential Leaders. Her unique path to the executive suite is not for the faint of heart, and her relentless determination is what she credits for making it there.

In this conversation, Emily and I discuss how to bushwhack a path to leadership in the fitness industry, how to earn trust as a leader when you are brand new to a space, and so much more.
