The Rebel Road Career Stories Series: Jenn talks to Reshma Ramachandran, VP & Head of Engineering at ABB
Hi and welcome to the Rebel Road podcast. I'm Jenn Fenwick, Career Transition and leadership coach at Rebel Road coaching. I work with leaders across the world to navigate the challenges of career transitions, and over the years I have supported over 1000 people take bold, brave steps in their careers. The Rebel Road podcast is me sharing some of the inspiring stories of people I've met along the way, leaders across the globe doing awesome things.
For my very first episode I have the wonderful Reshma Ramachandran, Global Head of Engineering at ABB, as my guest. In this inspiring interview, Reshma shares how she went from being a young girl studying by candlelight in a rural Indian village without power ..to now living in Switzerland and heading up a group of 1800 engineers across the globe...(wow!)
..bringing power to the world!
Reshma is an incredible leader and all-round inspiring person, and I am delighted to be able to share her story with you.
We talk careers, life and everything inbetween.
A few key discussion points:
* the importance of role models / mentoring / sponsorship
* finding your authentic voice and leadership style
* paving the way for the next generation
* finding your "true north" and purpose beyond work
* the importance of self-awareness
* creating a culture of belongingness with your people
..and just how uncomfortable that comfort zone can be! ;-)
So sit back, tune in... and enjoy!
