What do you do when everything goes sideways?
In this episode of The Enlightened Executive, I sit down with Juliette Kayyem, Harvard professor, former Assistant Secretary at Homeland Security under President Obama, and CNN Senior National Security Analyst.
Juliette shares how today's leaders can build resilience before the crisis hits, and what it takes to make clear, confident decisions under pressure.
We cover:
- The neuroscience behind decision-making in high-stress situations
- Why "urgent calm" is the most underutilized leadership skill
- How to train your team to act—not panic—in moments of crisis
- The power of pre-mortems to prevent disaster before it starts
Whether you're leading a team, scaling a company, or navigating organizational change, this conversation will equip you to lead with clarity, even in chaos.
Follow the show for more conversations that spark your personal evolution—and your leadership revolution.
