    Learn to Lead

    Episode Summary
    What does it take to be a successful leader? On Episode 131 of the Keep Leading!® podcast, I interviewed Pamay Bassey, the Chief Learning and Diversity Officer for the Kraft Heinz Company, for the answer. Simply put? Pamay says you must LEARN to lead. Listen to this episode to discover why being a lifelong learner is inextricably linked to effective leadership.

    A lifelong learner who loves laughter, words, big ideas, and serving her community, Pamay knows the power of doing big things in small increments. She believes that learning can be a superpower that can transform people, families, communities, and organizations. This belief is demonstrated in her passion projects that, for over a decade, have focused on the ways people believe, worship, lead, and learn.

    Her TEDx talk and weekly journal, both named Navigating Sacred Spaces, are based on her project work and her book: My 52 Weeks of Worship: Lessons from a Global, Spiritual, Interfaith Journey. She has also authored a daily journal: Let’s Learn Our Way Through It, Shall We? -- which encourages others to commit to their own personal and professional learning journeys.

    Leadership Quote
    "What is needed is an atmosphere, a subtle attitude, an uncompromising insistence on excellence, as well as a healthy pessimism in technical matters, a pessimism which offsets the normal human tendency to expect that everything will come out right and that no accident can be foreseen - and forestalled - before it happens." 
    Admiral Hyman Rickover, The Father of the Nuclear Navy
