Whitney Johnson - Author and CEO, Disruption Advisors

Imagine for a moment that you’re suddenly forced to switch to your non-dominant hand for a week. Getting dressed, feeding yourself, brushing your teeth–the tasks you used to do on autopilot have now become deeply challenging and awkward. But by the end of the experiment, you’ve gotten the hang of it! What was once an inconvenience has gifted you a new set of skills. Our guest today has spent her career empowering others to embrace disruption, both at the personal and organizational level. She’s found that with the right support and mindset, continuously seeking out the uncomfortable is the only way to keep growing throughout our lives. Today, she’ll guide our discussion with the powerful question:
