How does where, when and into which community you are born shape you? Dublin woman, Brenda McGuirk, chats about starting a career in the 1980s in Ireland (before contraception and divorce became an option for women), where her efforts took her and how these early experiences influenced what she pays attention to as she goes about managing products, programmes and people.
This is the first of a two-part episode and in this part, Brenda talks us through an example of what she means by "a process or team that wants to change itself" and her role in making that change happen.
In this part of our conversation she touches on topics like women in the workplace, managing change, high-performance teams, work-life balance, mentorship and resilience.
