The Secrets to Effective Design Leadership / Marzia Arico / Ep. #203
Manage episode 422186608 series 1206631
What does it take to become a great design leader...
Regardless of whether or not it's in your official job title, you're already leading to some degree.
You are leading because your work is to deliver change.
Change because we want to break free from outdated mental models that can't solve today's challenges.
But what kind of leadership is needed to transform our organizations from the dehumanizing machines they are today into adaptable living beings?
Returning guest Marzia Arico has some valuable perspectives on this.
With a PhD in Organizational Studies and experience leading complex projects at LiveWork, she has many juicy insights to share with us.
In this episode, we explore the emergence of a new, more empathetic leadership style that's quite different from the traditional notion of leadership.
We discuss how to present ourselves confidently in our work, even when imposter syndrome is lurking around the corner.
And we also delve into whether we should be explicit about the change we seek make or take a more trojan horse approach to influencing things.
This is a must-listen episode for anyone who wants to step up, take charge, and offer an alternative to the current leaders who aren't doing what's required today.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that we are all setting an example. Each and every day. So let's be intentional about what we want to put into the world.
Take care and keep making a positive impact.
