In this episode my guest Lynn Provenzano shares how she leans into and thrived in 4 distinctly different work environments in her career. Lynn shares what helped her to embrace the learning curve: flexibility to get out of our own way, focus on the “other”, listen to learn.
7:00 – “what helped me is being able to tap into the needs of those around me (customers or co-workers or community members)… then get out of your own world… (to) be successful.”
7:31 – “we are learners or knowers”
8:34 – “your acceptance of yourself as a lifelong learner enabled you to jump from one world to another and be successful in each”
14:30 – “you have to embrace the learning curve…you’re literally hugging it and saying ‘I’m going to own it and get knocked around a little bit and that’s ok’… and that’s how we learn”
17:09 – “…the learning curve is listening, making it about somebody other than yourself”
