About This Episode
In this episode I am delighted to be in conversation with Meera Craston, a highly experienced senior leader and executive coach; and co-founder of Next Brave Move. Meera is committed to supporting individuals, teams and organisations to thrive, demonstrate their impact and bring about positive change.
Together we delve into:
Meera’s three key encouragements for leaders:
1. At times when you feel stuck, there’s something very valuable about taking stock and weighing up whether you are holding onto an old narrative that was once very valuable but over time has become less relevant and is no longer serving you well
2. Be true to yourself and recognise that careers do not need to be linear and that it’s never too late to change direction and build new dreams
3. Creating space and being brave and exploratory can often lead to the most amazing opportunities.
A huge thanks to Meera for sharing so much of herself, her thoughts, insights and experiences.

This involved strategic, operational & commercial responsibilities, and leading the people, talent development, and cultural aspects of the Unit.
