Curiosity, Fear & 'Match Fit' Leadership – Holly Ransom

Freedom Matters

What if we did something that scared us every single day? How would that reset our perspective on life? What could we achieve?

In this episode, we welcome Holly Ransom, an expert in disruption and future leadership. As the founder and CEO of Emergent, she helps individuals and teams formulate the questions to find their strategy for making effective change.

Named one of Australia’s 100 Most Influential Women by the Australian Financial Review, Holly is also widely recognised as one of the world’s top female keynote speakers. She has delivered a Peace Charter to the Dalai Lama, interviewed Barack Obama on stage, was Sir Richard Branson’s nominee for Wired Magazine’s ‘Smart List’ of Future Game Changers to watch in 2017, and was awarded the U.S. Embassy’s Eleanor Roosevelt Award for Leadership Excellence in 2019.

Her new book, The Leading Edge, brings the real-world leadership lessons of so many diverse thinkers and pioneers she’s met to the fore.

In this episode we discuss:

• - why fear is a game-changer
• - the power of curiosity
• - why leadership is not 'match-fit' to manage the future of technology
