There was a day when overwhelmed with too much on her plate and a big life impact, Lynda got some great advice “stop spinning so many plates, people don’t remember how many plates you spin, only the ones you drop”. In this episode I explore growing leadership through understanding your why, what and how.
We talk to Lynda McDonald, whose lifelong curiosity has taken her many places and shaped the way she sees and now does things. These days she is very intentional on keeping her bucket full - leading with integrity and being true to herself. She’s a Kiwi girl with global influence in the dairy sector, she doesn’t like to focus on what she has done, it is more around ‘who she is’ and ‘what she stands for’.
