In 15 minutes find your spark by jumpstarting your creativity in leadership by design. Join host, Carole Burton, as she unpacks how when designing purposefully it moves the lens from I to WE.
Are you designing your life? A close friend of Carole shared, “If you are not creating and affecting your environment your environment creates and affects you.”
Carole discusses how designing can take many forms from construction, composition to creation. She explores how asking yourself as a leader – How am I designing myself as a leader for my team? How am I designing? What does designing mean? Where do I design?
She also goes on to say that it is during the quiet moments (that Carole calls “Light Bulb” moments) when change happens in a process. She challenges you to push beyond yourself and fully engage and be present in the moment.
