02. Making Courageous Choices: My Journey as a Change Leader

Ask Dr. Change

I invite you to join me for this special episode as I take you through my personal journey of discovery, risk-taking, empowerment and pioneering new territory.

I'll share with you some of the pivotal turning points in my life and career, including the moments when I stepped out of my comfort zone and made bold moves that had a massive impact on my career and the organizations I worked with.

You'll hear how my education and work experience made me curious about group dynamics and how this opened the door for me to delve into the world of organizational change. I will relate how I helped reveal and shape the field of organizational transformation as it emerged in the 1980s.

This led me to my partnership with Dean Anderson and our mission to craft the work of Conscious Change Leadership.

So, join me as I candidly explore the life choices I made and gain insights into how they might help you in your own life and career as a change leader.
