#102: Wendy Dean on leading change without fear Leading Through Uncertainty
-
- Management
Wendy Dean is the CEO of Strategi Solutions, a business consultancy offering services around people, creative and marketing. She talks about the anxiety that comes when thrust into the uncertainty of major change and how she looks for opportunities and generates new ideas to turn uncertainty into certainty.
Wendy reminds us that excitement and fear are physiologically the same and therefore how we can choose how we consider the uncertainty of change. She’s pragmatic about the fact that some people like the status quo and talks about how important it is to lead change in a way that doesn’t burn people out.
The over-riding word I get from Wendy is “balance”. She seems to balance leading change without burning people out, encouraging young people without overlooking the older workforce as well. She balances growing a business with growing the people in it.
Where do you need to be more in balance, in life, in work and in the way you lead?
Topics covered:
Leading through uncertainty
Transformational change
Role models for women
Different generations in the workforce
Empowering women
