Few leaders get the opportunity to reshape a brand as iconic as Nokia—but Stacey Brierley has spent over two decades doing just that. As VP of Brand, she’s helped guide Nokia’s transformation from a handset giant to the invisible force behind global connectivity.​ In this episode, she joins Lippincott's Louise Cantrill to share why true transformation isn’t about sudden pivots, but long-term, intentional evolution. From redefining a legacy brand for new B2B audiences to aligning teams across cultures, Stacey pulls back the curtain on what it takes to drive change across a global business.​ She also reflects on the role of curiosity, strategic thinking, and carving out time to step back, showing how asking better questions and rising above the day-to-day noise can turn complexity into clarity.​
