Welcome to Leaders in Conversation with Anni Townend™
Hello, I am Anni Townend, executive coach to senior leaders and their teams, partner to leaders and facilitator of large group work.
This is my podcast in which I talk with leaders about their personal life and leadership stories, to encourage you to reflect on what really matters to you, your values and beliefs, passions, and purpose to help inspire you so that you can feel more confident and courageous in your leadership.
In this series, leaders share how the people, places, and experiences in their lives have shaped them and influenced their leadership. They share why they care about what they are leading for and how they live their leadership every day.
Together, we delve into the challenges that they have faced and how they have overcome them, what they draw upon to give them confidence and courage, and how they take care of themselves to lead effectively.
