Episode 8: Decisiveness is a Layered Cake feat. Andrea Gott
What a great conversation with Andrea Gott, Mom of 4, Associate Director, Telecommunications Industry. The conversation is important in a world where so many people feel they are limited to their title and ‘who’ they can exchange email or ideas with and that there is a hierarchical approach and boundaries. This only holds back individuals, companies and innovation. We need to break through the limitations that we ‘assume’ or practice in the workplace and open up lines of communication and access.
