Ep 154 - Tenisha Griggs, VP, Head of Global Media at Terminus

I’m only on the second Passing the Mic episode and one thing has already stunned me: how little I know about people I’ve known or worked with for years. Why are we not allowing people to bring their whole self to work? In today’s episode, I’m speaking with Tenisha Griggs, Senior Director of Digital Strategy at Terminus.  I’ve worked with her for a long time, but there has always been an important dimension missing from our conversations.  I’m hoping we can change that. ------------ Join me for weekly special LinkedInLive sessions where I interview your favorite guests like Pat Lencioni, Seth Godin, Whitney Johnson, and Kim Scott — LIVE.
