Interviewers Sherry Mercurio and Aaron Cassidy of Franklin University provided me with an opportunity to share my views on a number of practical leadership subjects including: preparing for and leaning into disruption, encouraging a culture of reflection on emerging needs, and creating safe spaces and processes for everyone in the organization to share their best ideas. Presented here in the link to the program:
