023 OSI Community Podcast - Emotional Intelligence and Serendipity in Outdoor Leadership OSI Community Podcast

Chad Thatcher is a professor in Southern Oregon University’s Outdoor Adventure Leadership program. He has worked, taught, and led expeditions around the globe for decades. Yet for someone with an amazing breadth and depth of technical experience, Chad’s focus these days is on developing the emotional intelligence of tomorrow’s outdoor leaders. His goal is to develop people who can take their leadership skills into any environment, not just the outdoors.
If you find a conversation about these topics interesting, you’ll really want to listen as we dive into his research on serendipity and the role it plays in emerging leaders’ development. Chad’s enthusiasm for his craft is infectious, and every time we talk, I come away feeling more curious and more inspired to keep learning. I hope this episode of the OSI Community Podcast does the same for you!
