“’Hidden Brain’ with Shankar Vedantam. It explores how people think and interact while challenging listeners to be less judgmental and more curious. Applied to organizations, the podcast often explores “how the hidden brain shapes our capacity for change.” As leaders, understanding how people, including ourselves, view change and the world is key to successfully executing a vision.”

Who is a female athlete you admire and why? I enjoy watching Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese and seeing the impact they are having on the WBNA. From ticket sales to viewership these young women are changing their sport. It’s also great to see how they accept that they are still learning while also being stars among much more experienced players. I admire them for the confidence and humility.
