Meta Performance™ Moment #14: How to CRAFT STORIES That SHAPE Generations with Linda Woolverton, Legendary Disney Screenwriter

In these ‘Moment’ episodes, we bring you some of the most powerful insights from past conversations on Beyond High Performance.

META PERFORMANCE SHOW | In this episode, Novus Global Founder & CEO Jason Jaggard sits down with visionary screenwriter Linda Wolverton, the creative force behind Beauty and the Beast, Alice in Wonderland, The Lion King, and Maleficent.

Linda shares how she took bold creative risks to transform Belle into a proactive, fearless heroine—setting a new standard for storytelling and leadership in a traditionally rigid industry. She reflects on her collaboration with legendary lyricist Howard Ashman, overcoming imposter syndrome as a first-time feature writer, and trusting her instincts to break creative boundaries.

This conversation is a masterclass in bold innovation, creative courage, and the mindset required to lead industries forward. Whether you're building a company, crafting a movement, or leading a team, Linda’s journey will challenge you to ask: What could you accomplish if you silenced the noise and bet on your unique vision?
