Rachel Pacheco, Professor & Author of ‘Bringing Up the Boss: Practical Lessons for New Managers” - a podcast by Raman Sehgal & Andrew Tarvin

“We're biologically hardwired to get defensive when we receive feedback - step beyond that defense and step forward with openness and receptivity.”

Rachel Pacheco, PhD is an award-winning author and Management professor at Georgetown University. A former Chief People Officer, Rachel serves on the board of directors and board of advisors for numerous start-ups and high growth organizations. Her first book, Bringing Up the Boss: Practical Lessons for New Managers, focuses on translating academic research and data into immediately useable tools for practitioners. Rachel’s work explores how managers bring meaning, authenticity, and their own self-discovery into the workplace. Prior to her role at Georgetown, Rachel was on the faculty of the Wharton School, and was a founding faculty member of the Entrepreneurship Education Program at the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania. She received her BS in Mathematics from Georgetown University and her MBA, MPhil and PhD in Business Administration from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.
