Leaders in Conversation with Anni Townend

Welcome and welcome back to Leaders in Conversation with me, Anni Townend, the podcast that helps you to grow confidence and courage your leadership.

I created this series of candid conversations for leaders to share their inspirational leadership stories, weaving together the threads of their life.

Together we delve into what they really care about, their values and beliefs, their passion and purpose and how they live and weave these through their leadership every day, in all that they do.

They offer valuable insights and rich experience to help and inspire you on your own unique leadership journey. If you are not already please do subscribe to the podcast, review and share it. Thank you!

Together Sophie and I delve into:

1) Pacesetting and the principles for positivity, and how velocity can speed up success.

2) How leadership is an iterative process - and how to be the editor of your leadership, constantly creating, testing and revising.

3) Why marketing matters - now - more than ever

Sophie’s Three Key Encouragements:
1) Manage your pace
2) Only Connect
3) Act with Audacity
