Karen Boswell: Navigating the Corporate Maze: Overcoming Self-Doubt, Bias, and Profit-Driven Pressures

In this week’s episode, I talk with the brilliant Karen Boswell. Join us as we delve deep into the vital significance of purpose in both individual and business success. 

I am so grateful for Karen’s transparency in sharing her career highs and lows and shedding light on topics often hidden behind a facade of success.

Key discussion points:

•  Overcoming feeling excluded and having self-doubt following a merger announcement
•  Rebuilding confidence after losing personal purpose
• Blind recruiting to mitigate biases and promote inclusivity
• Building trust through vulnerability and transparency
• When to push for change or move on in leadership
• From profit-centric to purpose-driven business, the necessity to adapt or face decline
• Flip the traditional meeting agenda to prioritise people's issues
• The challenges of a large company's complexities and hierarchies 
• Strategies on how to build a culture virtually
• Do things for you, rather than seeking external validation 

This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative effects of leading with purpose, the resilience required to enact change, and the personal fulfilment that comes from aligning with one's true values.
