Prior to that Beverley worked at Unilever for 6 years and she is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Beverley is passionate about building powerhouse teams, business transformation and turnarounds, and helping leaders find purpose!
In this episode, we discuss the following topics:
- Beverley's career journey, which started with studying finance and economics but later led her to discover her true passion in marketing.
- The concept of Authentic Leadership and Development, exploring how one can find their purpose in life (how and what is purpose)
- We also delve into the idea that the most profound learning often takes place when we push ourselves outside of our comfort zones. We explore how embracing discomfort can lead to valuable growth and development.
- The Ikigai Method - A Japanese concept, which is when finding your purpose involves identifying what you love, what you're good at, and what the world is willing to pay you for. When these elements intersect, you are more likely to find your true purpose and experience fulfillment.
