Rewriting the rulebook on leadership, communication, and success.

In this episode, leader and reputation coach Charlotte Otter reflects on the first three episodes of her podcast Speech Bubbles.

She looks at how her first three interviewees are rewriting the rulebook on leadership, communication, and success.

Charlotte engages with insights from Meg Bear, Sarah Goodall, and Sara Daw - three very different leaders who share one thing: deep intentionality about how they lead and how they show up.

This is a short, snappy episode - enjoy!

This podcast is a companion piece to Charlotte Otter's book We Need New Leaders, published on 3 June by Practical Inspiration Publishing. Find it online or in all good bookshops.
