As leaders, embracing change and fresh perspectives is vital for driving innovation and fostering inclusive environments. I’m excited to share an engaging and informative episode from the Zoë Routh Leadership Podcast, titled “A Gen Z Leadership Perspective from Iman Kibukamusoke. At 23, Iman’s insights into leadership are profound and rooted in her diverse experiences in consultancy, volunteerism, and academic pursuits in psychology and commerce.
