“Politics are fierce. They are big. When you are trying to move an issue forward, it can be hard. Part of being a good leader, I have learned, is finding allies, how to bring others along to your goal and vision.”This week I sit down with Nancy Wackstein, with Fordham University, to hear about her work history, her lessons learned, and what she is encouraging upcoming leaders to dive into. I would venture to say 2020 has been an unmatched year for leaders everywhere. Politics, racial issues, health problems, topics that may typically be “taboo” have all become frequent topics during Zoom meetings. Nancy shares how she navigated and continues to work through the line of politics and the office place. This episode is timely, concrete and helpful in its guidance around such a touchy subject. I can’t wait for you to check it out. --Humentum sponsors the Lessons from Leaders Podcast. We are filled with gratitude for their partnership. Each person at Humentum has a spirit of learning, generosity, and care. If you are not family with the Humentum Organization, I encourage you to get to know them. Connect with Humentum:https://www.humentum.org/https://www.instagram.com/humentum_org/https://twitter.com/humentum_orghttps://youtu.be/sgioiFDMfhs
