#38: Pancakes and Peacocks | Episode 38 | Cait O'Riordan

Season #1

I count myself very fortunate to have met Cait O’Riordan on my career path (and life path). She has a big grown up job leading a lot of humans to do brilliant things as Chief Product and Information Officer at the FT, but does so with awe inspiring humanity and a GSOH. 

We met over the airwaves, rather than our usual pre COVID breakfast catch up, and had a wonderful conversation that covered:

🥞 How important it is to curate groups of people who you can lean on as a leader, outside of your organisation 
🦚 How to diagnose what we find most challenging, and make an action plan 
🥞 The learning journey you go on as a leader to help inspire the right energy in others
🦚 How to rationalise with yourself when feeling imposter syndrome to help you believe you should be doing the thing you are doing

And of course... joy ✨
