Guest Victoria Miles on The Leadership of Letting Go | HR55

Join host Susan Ney and her guest Victoria Miles as Victoria shares her research, insights, and personal journey of transition – a journey of liminal leadership – the focus of her Master of Leadership major project and thesis.  What guides the good good-bye?  Victoria shares that it is all about leading a transition in a conscious and deliberate way, about letting go in increments, about dealing with the betwixt and between of transitions and, seeing uncertainty as opportunity.  Together Susan and Victoria reflect on the value of showing up with integrity and recognizing that doubt and uncertainty are an integral part of the journey.  Hope you will make the time to join us!
