Colleen has had a front-row seat of company culture gone horribly wrong, and wonderfully right.

In this interview, Colleen and Augustine Pasin discuss the importance of restructuring goals around one’s purpose, what it means to pursue purpose, what the acronym VUCA means, and how to build one’s personal leadership model (among many other things).

This episode is a look into company culture and how to make changes not only in your workplace but in your own life as well.
