How can leaders manage change in this challenging time? Is it important they show vulnerability? What skills are required? How far can active listening go in solving problems?

In under 40 minutes, Julie Hodges answers a lot of these questions on this episode and describes brilliantly how leaders don't need to know everything but instead need to engage those around them to collate the information they need to make a decision. This episode also includes a great discussion on the changes that people are facing and how planned change is being replaced with the emergent change that is people led.

💥 Rosa Parks and Emmeline Pankhurst

💥 Flexibility

💥 Adaptability

💥 Humility

💥 Changing your mind

💥 Opportunity
